Hauser & Wirth Partner Cristopher Canizares Departs to Start Artist Agency

Cristopher Canizares, a longtime partner at mega-gallery Hauser & Wirth, is departing after 16 years to launch his own venture, the Artist Legacy Bureau. This new agency will function as an artist management firm, with Canizares working directly for and being paid by a select group of five or six artists to advise on long-term career strategy across their gallery, institutional, and collector relationships.

Art Basel gets go-going at Hauser & Wirth’s stand

At Art Basel's Unlimited section, Hauser & Wirth is presenting Felix Gonzalez-Torres's 1991 performance work "Untitled" (Go-Go Dancing Platform), in which a local go-go dancer performs a silent disco atop a small lit stage for five minutes at unspecified times. The piece, created shortly after the deaths of the artist's partner and father, explores themes of renewal, rebirth, and masculinity, according to Hauser & Wirth partner Cristopher Canizares.
