New York, September, 13, 2019 — Pace Gallery launched its new flagship in Chelsea with a spectacular

DJ Questlove kicked off the night by spinning on the terrace. At 9 PM, The Who performed a set of iconic songs,
including “The Kids Are Alright” and “Pinball Wizard.” To round out the night, Graham Reynolds’ band performed
under Fred Wilson’s chandeliers on the 7th floor.
