How Hauser & Wirth is Reinventing How We Interact with Art
Hauser & Wirth may be one of the world’s most eminent blue-chip galleries, but its new location in a historic flour mill in the heart of Los Angeles is giving the Europe-based legacy brand a breath of new life. As Hauser & Wirth celebrates its 25th anniversary, the gallery continues to seek new ways of encouraging its visitors to interact with contemporary art. At this visit to Hauser & Wirth’s sprawling L.A. home that encompasses a gallery, bookstore, restaurant, and garden (complete with chickens!), you’ll get an inside look at how the gallery has managed to scale while keeping its brand fresh, as well as some of the gallery’s ambitious innovations in the art space. Then you’ll get to explore the gallery, known for housing outsize works of art, on your own.

Lessons in Diversification: How Biz 3 Grew Into a Music Industry Powerhouse
Over the past 20 years, Biz 3 has grown from a scrappy endeavor to a music industry powerhouse, representing an eclectic mix of clients like Run the Jewels, Daft Punk, J. Cole, Lauryn Hill, and Skrillex, among many others. When the music business started to undergo seismic shifts around 2008, Biz 3 managed to prosper by diversifying its offerings to include management, consulting, and a broader menu of what its press services provided compared to its peers. Visit its Chinatown office to hear from founder Kathryn Frazier about how she navigates a rapidly changing industry, what keeps her and her team grounded through tumult, and more. And stay tuned—you never know who may drop by to share some new music.
