From the beginning well-known artists such as Wilhelm Freddie, Carl-Henning Pedersen and Robert Jacobsen established the reputation of the gallery.
Today the gallery also has a strong representation of artists from the 80's and 90's working with painting, sculpture, video, installation, as well as photography.
In 2001 Jacob and Patricia Asbæk opened a large exhibition space in Mallorca - Centro Cultural Andratx. Many of Galerie Asbæks' artists have lived and exhibited here along with international artists such as Markus Oehlen, Les Rogers, Martin Parr, Cosima von Bonin etc.
