Skarstedt moved to New York and opened his first Upper East Side gallery at 1018 Madison Avenue in 1992. In 2007, the gallery moved into 20 East 79th Street, the former gallery of Paul Rosenberg & Co., designed by Francis d'Haene. In 2019, Skarstedt opened a second space in New York’s Upper East Side, located in a 25,000-square-foot space at 19 East 64th Street.[3]

In 2012, Skarstedt expanded with a gallery in London at 8 Bennett Street, designed by Thomas Croft.[4]

Skarstedt opened its East Hampton gallery in 2020 at 66 Newtown Ln.[5] That same year, Skarstedt opened a pop-up in Palm Beach, exhibiting Richard Prince Nurses and new sculptures by KAWS.
