The Wirths are in the meanwhile introducing the works of Western artists they represent to the Chinese market, where they have observed a growing interest.

The gallery had booths at both West Bund Art Fair and Art 021 last year. They collaborated with Shanghai's Qiao Space, founded by Chinese collector Qiao Zhibing, to present British artist Martin Creed's debut solo exhibition in China, titled Understanding.

The two galleries cooperated on Polish artist Wilhelm Sasnal's one-man show, which was also held at Qiao Space, in 2015.

BRIC-a-brac: The Jumble of Growth, an ongoing exhibition at Beijing's Today Art Museum, features an installation by Subodh Gupta, an Indian artist who also works with Hauser & Wirth.
