There is a lot in this piece taken from Boom, but this article paints GoGo in a much worse light. It more or less says he's unscrupulous when it comes to the source of money (Russian Oligarch's) being used to buy art. It also makes him out to be a shadowy market maker, representing both sides of a transaction where neither buyer nor seller know who each other are.

I honestly didn't find the article to be that great...just a predictable New Yorker piece circa 2023, complete with all the "checkboxes" that need to be mentioned. Gagosian himself, however, I find super fascinating, and most of his life is covered here.
