Hauser & Wirth - Löwenbräukunst
About
Hauser & Wirth's Zurich location at Limmatstrasse 270 represents one of the city's most compelling destinations for contemporary art enthusiasts. Housed within the distinctive Löwenbräukunst complex, this gallery brings the internationally renowned Hauser & Wirth gallery network to Switzerland's creative heart. The space itself occupies a converted industrial building that once served as the Löwenbräu brewery, lending it authentic character and an intriguing backstory that blends Zurich's cultural heritage with its contemporary art scene. Visitors approaching the gallery will find themselves in an area that celebrates the transformation of historic industrial spaces into cultural venues, making the location itself part of the artistic experience. The gallery's programming focuses exclusively on contemporary art, presenting carefully curated exhibitions that reflect the diverse directions and innovations shaping the art world today. You can expect to encounter works across multiple mediums, from painting and sculpture to installation, photography, and video art. The exhibitions change regularly, ensuring that repeat visitors will always discover something new. The curatorial approach emphasizes thoughtful presentations that allow artworks to resonate within the carefully designed gallery spaces, creating an environment where you can engage with art on a meaningful level rather than simply moving through a crowded commercial venue. When you visit, expect a welcoming atmosphere that balances sophistication with accessibility. The converted industrial architecture provides generous ceiling heights and natural light in many areas, creating an engaging backdrop for contemporary works. The gallery maintains regular hours from Tuesday through Saturday, closing only on Sundays and Mondays, so planning your visit fits easily into most schedules. Whether you spend an hour exploring a single exhibition or return multiple times throughout a season to follow the gallery's programming, Hauser & Wirth Zurich offers the kind of serious engagement with contemporary art that makes Zurich an important destination for collectors, artists, and anyone seeking authentic cultural experiences.
