C L E A R I N G closes after 14 years
After fourteen years of activity, CLEARING is ending its program and closing its spaces in New York and Los Angeles.
Founded in 2011, CLEARING was always more than just an art gallery — it was also a community shaped by all the artists we had the privilege to work with, and sustained by the trust and energy of institutions, curators, collectors, and collaborators around the world.
It was not an easy decision. Until the very end, we hoped to turn the corner. But with no viable path forward, we are closing today because we can no longer operate at the standards we’ve always held ourselves to — for our artists, our teams, and our entire community.
From February 2011 to July 2025, and across spaces in New York, Brussels, and Los Angeles, CLEARING hosted more than 200 exhibitions, with over 250 artists from around the world, and participated in more than 80 art fairs. Over the years, we’ve also had the privilege of seeing many of these artists take part in major museum exhibitions, biennials, and publications — moments of recognition and resonance that we were proud to be associated with and to support.
We want to thank all the artists who gave meaning to this adventure, and we salute the institutions, curators, and collectors who championed their vision. To our teams — past and present — thank you for your dedication and hard work. CLEARING was, first and foremost, a shared endeavor, and any success we encountered belongs to all of you.
Serving at the head of CLEARING has been the great honor of my life.
With gratitude,
Olivier Babin
