Watch: Andres Serrano in the Epstein files
1:12Narrated from the AI-generated summary of the documents. Numbers reflect the archive at generation time.
The files include direct correspondence between artist Andres Serrano and Jeffrey Epstein, plus Epstein's assistant Lesley Groff, from 2012 to 2019. The emails cover scheduling meetings, art and exhibitions, a statue delivery, and a few exchanges about Donald Trump in October 2016.
Serrano is in the From/To/Cc header of 30 emails. Most are with Lesley Groff, who arranged meetings between him and Epstein in 2012, 2014, 2018 and 2019. Others are direct exchanges with Epstein's email account (2012, 2014, 2015 and 2016). Some of the 160 documents that mention the name are not about him. Several are news digests where "Serrano" is a San Francisco Chronicle reporter, and others are court or government records naming unrelated people called Serrano. The files do not show what Epstein and Serrano discussed in the meetings they arranged.
Key Highlights
- •Serrano and Epstein emailed directly. In May 2012 Serrano wrote to Epstein "All we can do is try. My heart is pure" and said he believed he could win someone over if he could meet in person. Epstein replied that he would speak to "them" again the next day. The files do not say who "them" refers to.
- •In a later 2012 thread Serrano and Epstein discussed whether a group was Catholic. Serrano wrote "I'm Christian though" and Epstein answered that "religious, does not only mean christian."
- •Lesley Groff coordinated Serrano's contact with Epstein across several years. In April 2014 she emailed Serrano with contact details for Leon Black, reachable through Black's assistant. In June 2018 they set a 4pm Thursday, June 7 meeting with Epstein, and in April 2019 they arranged another visit at "39 East 12 St, first floor."
- •On June 8, 2018, Serrano wrote to Groff that a statue had been delivered and asked her to "please thank Jeffrey!!!" Groff forwarded the message to Epstein under the subject "Andres." The files do not say what the statue was or who sent it.
- •In November 2015 Epstein emailed Serrano that he had "saw you phjotos this eveng at the grand palais paris. nice." Serrano replied that Paris "must be nice right now." In 2014 and 2015 Serrano also wrote to Epstein about an exhibition invitation and asked for help with something.
- •On October 10, 2016, Serrano sent Epstein several emails about Donald Trump. The first begins "I was prepared to vote against Trump for all the right reasons but I'm so disg..." The text is cut off, so the files do not show what he objected to. A House Oversight document titled "The Game: All Things Trump" is also credited to Andres Serrano.
- •All of this correspondence is dated after Epstein's 2008 conviction. The files show Epstein's office actively scheduling visits and exchanging gifts and messages with Serrano, but they show no wrongdoing by Serrano.
