Hauser & Wirth
Iwan Wirth, Manuela Wirth, and her mother Ursula Hauser formed Hauser & Wirth in 1992. By 2021, the organization has 93 artists or their estates under its umbrella. Zurich was the first location to open. The gallery now has three exhibition rooms in this location, which are housed in the historic Löwenbräu Zürich brewery building. The gallery built a branch in London in 2003, which is situated in a bank constructed by Sir Edwin Lutyens. Paul Schimmel has curated shows there. In 2009, a branch on East 69th Street in New York City opened, with an opening exhibition featuring a re-creation of Allan Kaprow's work. In 2013, the second location in New York was opened. In the same year, Michaela Unterdörfer published Hauser & Wirth: 20 Years, a book about the gallery's history.
Hauser & Wirth built a UK branch in Bruton in Somerset in 2014 through their hotel firm, Artfarm. The gallery opened a branch in Los Angeles, California, in March 2016, and a branch in Hong Kong in March 2018. In 2018, they founded the Hauser & Wirth Institute, a non-profit organization based in New York City. The international gallery, located at One Monte-Carlo, will open in 2021. Louise Bourgeois was the subject of the first exhibition. In July 2021, another building on Isla del Rey opened with a display devoted to the artist Mark Bradford.
