#SwizzArtBiz x Löwenbräukunst: Barbara Corti of Hauser & Wirth on the gallery's many locations

From Los Angeles to Hong Kong, Hauser & Wirth operates in 16 locations worldwide. The gallery, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, just announced that it will open its first space in Paris next year.

In this latest episode of Swizz Art Biz x Löwenbräukunst, I speak with Barbara Corti, who is a partner at Hauser & Wirth.

She started working at the gallery when it only had its space at Löwenbräukunst in Zurich. Shortly after she moved to New York, where she first spent seven years working for 303 Gallery. In 2013, Hauser & Wirth needed her help when it opened its first space in Chelsea, NY.

When the pandemic hit the world in 2020 she decided to pack her things and return to Switzerland. A decision which wasn’t easy but now makes sense to her. She is now responsible for Hauser & Wirth’s galleries at Löwenbräukunst in Zurich and in St. Moritz. Corti tells Tanya König about her time in the U.S., how Hauser & Wirth picks its locations, and why everyone should dare to enter a gallery and just look around.
