Hauser & Wirth è una delle gallerie di arte contemporanea e moderna più importanti al mondo, fondata a Zurigo nel 1992 da Iwan Wirth, Manuela Wirth e Ursula Hauser. La sua sede storica a New York, al 542 West 22nd Street, è un edificio progettato su misura da Annabelle Selldorf e inaugurato nel 2020, che offre circa 36.000 piedi quadrati di gallerie senza colonne dietro una facciata in cemento grigio e zinco con porte a vetri pieghevoli che si aprono sulla strada. Rappresentando oltre 90 artisti ed eredità artistiche, la galleria organizza mostre ambiziose e di qualità museale, sempre a ingresso gratuito. Gestisce inoltre altri spazi a Manhattan, su Wooster Street a SoHo, e uno spazio dedicato alle edizioni su 18th Street.
