MLG prides itself on the pristine condition of each work of art it offers and guarantees the authenticity of every piece.

In addition, MLG has loaned many masterpieces to museums and public institutions. Our most recent loans include two Kour Pour paintings to the Tokyo Metropolitan Teien Art Museum’s Decoration never dies anyway, David Hockney’s Outpost Drive to the acclaimed retrospective of Hockney’s work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Magritte’s La decouverte de feu to Musée Magritte’s Magritte-Broodthaers & Contemporary Art.

Iconic Haring, signature Warhol, sensual Picasso, romantic Chagall and bronze sculptures by the elegant and legendary Erté; otherworldly landscapes from Kerry Hallam, contemporary works by the visual raconteur Robert Deyber, complex Takashi Murakami and the articulate aesthetic sense of Mark Kostabi and so much more.
