Wirth added, ‘As custodians of some of the world’s most important private collections, we are eager to work with Liberté to expand our advisory and other services to collectors. She will also work at a senior level to help nurture and advise our many Estates on navigating the complexities of the secondary market.’
Liberté Nuti says:
‘I have always admired Hauser & Wirth’s pool of artists, and found inspiration in the gallery’s creative spirit and passion for pioneering models for what a contemporary art gallery can do and be, for placing contemporary art within a historical framework through peerless exhibitions, their extensive education programme, and important research and publications. I am excited by this new challenge and look forward to developing Hauser & Wirth’s vision and love of the avant-garde which is so visible in their exhibition history. I am thrilled to work closely with the gallery’s Partners Iwan and Manuela Wirth, and Marc Payot, on new initiatives of international scope.’
About Hauser & Wirth
Hauser & Wirth was founded in 1992 in Zurich by Iwan Wirth, Manuela Wirth and Ursula Hauser, who were joined in 2000 by Partner and Vice President Marc Payot. A family business with a global outlook, Hauser & Wirth has expanded over the past 26 years to include outposts in Hong Kong, London, New York, Los Angeles, Somerset and Gstaad. The gallery represents over 75 artists and estates who have been instrumental in shaping its identity over the past quarter century, and who are the inspiration for Hauser & Wirth’s diverse range of activities that engage with art, education, conservation and sustainability.
Hauser & Wirth 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 realize museum quality surveys, and invests considerable resources in new scholarship and research. Since its earliest days, the gallery has forged an academically rigorous, ambitious program of historic exhibitions. Hauser & Wirth has extensive experience in estate management, and is the home of a number of major 20th-century European and American artist estates including Louise Bourgeois, Arshile Gorky Estate, 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, among others.
