Paula Cooper Gallery has survived and thrived in a mercurial art world for more than five decades. On today's show, the legendary dealer talks about the history and future of her gallery together with Steven Henry, who has been the gallery director for more than two decades, Allan Schwartzman, co-founder of Art Agency, Partners, and host Charlotte Burns.

Known for her eye, Cooper has represented some of the most important international contemporary artists of the past half-century. "Artists will give her the best shows, the best work," says Henry. The gallery has remained a leader of the pack throughout the past 50 years, despite seismic shifts in the art world and market. Nowadays, "it's this huge international money world," says Cooper, who also discusses new styles of collecting and the impact of politics on the art world.

She also talks about the future: "I really have to think about not being here, now at this point," she says. Ultimately, the legacy of the gallery will be the artists it has supported, she says: "The gallery will be forgotten. It's the artists who survive."
