Jack Tilton Dies

May 7, 2017 by Marion Maneker

ArtNews is reporting that Jack Tilton, the dealer who has had his eponymous gallery for 33 years, has died:

Despite helping to launch the careers of numerous mainstays of today’s contemporary art scene, he operated on a relatively modest, personal scale, promoting his latest enthusiasms out of an Upper East Side townhouse over the past decade. His death, which has been confirmed with people who were close to him, marks the end of a uniquely original career. The details of his passing were not immediately available, but he had had Parkinson’s Disease since at least 2010.
