Editions
Reflecting our enduring support for artists collaborating with master printers, Hauser & Wirth Editions explores the universe of contemporary and historical prints through curated exhibitions and fairs, online presentations, and public programs.
In 2023, we opened our first dedicated Editions space, located at 443 West 18th Street in New York, showcasing the multifaceted practices of the gallery’s artists. We inaugurated the space with ‘Once there was a mother,' a solo presentation of important and little-seen works by Louise Bourgeois (1911 – 2010).
Featured Editions
‘There could be tenderness in her work, but I think printmaking and you know gouging into a piece of copper was a kind of release.’
—Felix Harlan, Louise Bourgeois’ longtime printer in The Printmaking of Louise Bourgeois
‘You can either do a self portrait in terms of doing a drawing that looks like a face, the proportion of the eyes, the mouth, the nose, or you can say cumulatively, the works you draw over a lifetime become another way of describing yourself.’
—William Kentridge on ‘I Look In The Mirror, I Know What I Need’
Our West Chelsea location is the gallery’s first dedicated space for Editions. Anchored by the Hauser & Wirth Publishers flagship bookstore, the historic building is also a hub for Learning initiatives, Public Programs and more.
On View at New York, 18th Street
Renowned for his adventurous experimentation with both materials and subject matter, Dieter Roth (b. 1930 Hanover, Germany – d. 1998 Basel, Switzerland) generated a multifaceted oeuvre that transcends boundaries between painting, sculpture, design, literature, poetry and music. Featuring a selection of graphic works, monoprints, multiples and unique pieces spanning from the early 1960s to 1975, this exhibition, titled ‘Islandscapes,’ focuses on Roth’s printmaking, which accompanied every phase of his life and practice.
