Rago/Wright proudly presents Living Out Loud: The A. Aladar Marberger Collection at auction on March 13th. A close friend of Elaine de Kooning, Marberger served as the director of the influential Fischbach Gallery and was a central figure in New York’s 1970s and 1980s art scene. When Marberger was diagnosed with AIDS in 1985, he dedicated himself to publicly fighting the prevalent stigma against the disease and reveling in life and art until his passing in 1988.

Celebrating Marberger’s remarkable life and enduring legacy, this important collection has remained untouched for more than three decades and includes works by artists whom Marberger counted as friends and personally championed during his impactful though short career, with significant works by Elaine de Kooning, Alex Katz, Doug Ohlson, Raymond Parker, and more.
