'Iwan Wirth: Building a Blue-Chip Name'

Marc Spiegler
Synopsis

I called this one early, in 2000. Then again, it was not hard to miss the empire building: "In the last four years, the 29-year-old has launched two major Zurich galleries and is now teaming up with SoHo dealer David Zwirner to form a new gallery in New York." The rest is art-market history, and today Hauser & Wirth arguably ranks as the megagallery that has best embraced the new experience economy.
