Hauser & Wirth was founded in 1992 in Zurich by Iwan Wirth, Manuela Wirth and Ursula Hauser, who were joined in 2000 by Partner and President Marc Payot and CEO Ewan Venters in 2021. A family business with a global outlook, Hauser & Wirth represents over 90 artists and estates who have been instrumental in shaping its identity and who are the inspiration for Hauser & Wirth’s diverse range of activities that engage with art, education, conservation and sustainability.
The gallery has built a reputation for its dedication to artists and support of visionary artistic projects worldwide. In addition to presenting a dynamic schedule of exhibitions, the gallery collaborates with renowned curators to present museum quality surveys and invests considerable resources in new scholarship and research. Since its earliest days, Hauser & Wirth has mounted historically significant exhibitions. The inaugural exhibition in 1992 took place at Hauser & Wirth’s first gallery, located in the first-floor apartment of an Art Deco villa in the heart of Zurich; it united mobiles and gouaches by Alexander Calder with sculptures and paintings by Joan Miró. Since then, the gallery has continued to forge an ambitious and academically rigorous program of historic exhibitions, providing a natural home for a number of major 20th-century artist estates and encouraging a continued and engaging discourse around their oeuvres. These include Louise Bourgeois, The Estate of Philip Guston, The Eva Hesse Estate, Allan Kaprow Estate, Mike Kelley Foundation for the Arts, The Estate of Jason Rhoades, Dieter Roth Estate and The Estate of David Smith.
Since 2013, Hauser & Wirth Somerset has supported an immersive artist-in-residence program alongside a breadth of learning and community initiatives. Artists-in-residence have included Rita Ackermann, Martin Creed, Allison Katz, Bharti Kher, Pipilotti Rist, Mika Rottenberg, Henry Taylor, Thomas J Price, Rashid Johnson and Christina Quarles. 2024 residencies include Oddur Roth, Firelei Báez, a new writer’s residency in partnership with ArtReview, a guest artist collective selected by Frances Morris responding to the work of Phyllida Barlow and a cohort of female makers from Make Hauser & Wirth.
Hauser & Wirth is committed to inclusive learning programs that create a dialogue between art, artists and diverse audiences. Ongoing global projects are centered on three core pillars: to engage with communities; enrich academic courses; and foster better access to art careers through a series of meaningful partnerships.
In 2023 the gallery partnered with 38 non-profits and supported 21 learning charities, resulting in over 180,000 people globally experiencing an element of the learning program. We welcomed 8,622 learners from schools and universities, running over 400 learning activities and events in 8 locations.
Hauser & Wirth’s Education Lab initiative is located in Menorca, Somerset and Downtown Los Angeles, as well as at Chillida Leku, and each Education Lab is a collaboration with a local community group, school or university. The interactive spaces have been inspired by and developed alongside the gallery’s international artists, facilitating a platform for discovery, discussion, and additional resources. In summer 2024, the Education Labs have taken their starting point from artists Jason Rhoades in Los Angeles, Eduardo Chillida in Menorca and San Sebastian, and Phyllida Barlow in Somerset.
In keeping with Hauser & Wirth’s artist-centric vision, Hauser & Wirth Publishers works to bring readers into the universe of artists and behind the scenes of their practices. From publishing artists’ writings and exceptional exhibition-related books to commissioning new scholarship and pursuing the highest levels of craft in design and bookmaking, Hauser & Wirth Publishers creates vital, lasting records of artists’ work and ideas, forging critical gateways to the cultural discourse they inspire. Across its dedicated bookstores in the U.S. and Europe, Hauser & Wirth Publishers complements and amplifies the artist’s voice by hosting a robust slate of special programs, including talks, panels, readings and learning initiatives that engage a variety of audiences and communities.
Hauser & Wirth is recognized for its sympathetic approach to restoring historic buildings and giving them a new lease of life as contemporary art spaces that invigorate surrounding communities. From the conversion of its first permanent venue in the former Löwenbräu brewery building that became Hauser & Wirth Zürich in 1996, the gallery has developed and sensitively restored existing structures that respond to their environments, connecting international art with local culture through architecture. The gallery renovated Durslade Farm, a collection of dilapidated farm buildings in rural Somerset, to open a world-class art center Hauser & Wirth Somerset in 2014, as well as converting a 100,000 sq. ft. former flour mill, the Globe Mills complex, in Downtown Los Angeles in 2016. In 2018, Hauser & Wirth Downtown Los Angeles was awarded Los Angeles Conservancy’s highest honor, the Chair’s Award, which recognizes the importance of preserving the historic places that make Los Angeles unique. In July 2021, the gallery opened an art center on Illa del Rei in Menorca after a conservation project repurposing existing historic buildings on the island. The project was recognized with a European Heritage Award by Europa Nostra and Best Social Responsibility Initiative by the Government of the Balearic Islands, among others.
In October 2023, the gallery opened a space in Paris, situated on the right bank of the River Seine close to the Champs-Élysées in the 8th arrondissement with an inaugural exhibition by Henry Taylor. The gallery expanded its New York presence in November 2023 with a location on Wooster Street in Soho’s historic Cast Iron District. In addition, a space at 443 West 18th Street in New York is home to Hauser & Wirth Editions, new iterations of the popular Hauser & Wirth Publishers Bookstore and Roth Bar, and the Hauser & Wirth Learning hub for educational and community programs and projects.
