Nicholas Lisson on his philosophy of running an enduring gallery business: “The money will come if the art is good enough.”

Lisson Gallery’s father-son duo Nicholas and Alex Logsdail discuss the history of their gallery, its more than 500 exhibitions over 50 years now only partially captured in a book of 1,200 pages.

In this intimate conversation between Elena Platonova and the Logsdails we learn about the path both men took from pursuing their own artistic visions—Nicholas as a painter; Alexander as a musician—to running a transatlantic gallery. We hear about their plans for further global expansion and their own fifty-year rule for gauging the quality of an artist.
