Cattelan, Gioni and Subotnick became known in the art world as a curating team when they founded The Wrong Gallery in 2002. Based in New York’s art gallery district, Chelsea, the tiny non-profit art space of one square meter hosted more than 40 shows, including artists like Lawrence Weiner, Shirana Shahbazi, Tino Sehgal and Elizabeth Peyton. The Wrong Times arose from this project: a newspaper featuring interviews with all the artists shown at The Wrong Gallery.

Speaking of printed matters, Cattelan, Gioni and Subotnick also founded the publication series, Charley, in 2001 which deals with contemporary art in another consuming way. Based on the concept of collecting formats and contexts, the three mix up the information they find in recent publications and give way for new interpretations and coherences.
