A SoHo gallery where contemporary art meets New York’s downtown history. Hauser & Wirth New York, Wooster Street is a polished but atmospheric stop — serious global art inside a former truck garage in one of Manhattan’s most iconic art neighborhoods.

Hauser & Wirth New York, Wooster Street is located at 134 Wooster Street, in SoHo. The gallery occupies a distinctive single-story building constructed in 1920 as a truck garage, now transformed into a contemporary art space that expands Hauser & Wirth’s Manhattan presence beyond Chelsea.

This location matters because SoHo has deep art history: before Chelsea became the dominant gallery district, SoHo was one of New York’s great centres for artists, lofts, experimentation and contemporary gallery culture. Hauser & Wirth’s Wooster Street space reconnects with that legacy in a more intimate, downtown way.

What you’ll see here

At Hauser & Wirth Wooster Street, expect temporary exhibitions rather than a permanent collection. The experience is more concentrated than the gallery’s huge Chelsea spaces, but still polished, ambitious and deeply connected to the global contemporary art world.

You may encounter:

  • Contemporary painting, sculpture, installation and photography
  • Major international artists and artist estates
  • Focused solo exhibitions
  • A SoHo gallery atmosphere, more downtown than Chelsea
  • Free access during public opening hours
  • A strong stop within a SoHo / Tribeca / Lower Manhattan art route

Worth the trip

Yes — especially if you want to understand New York’s gallery scene beyond Chelsea and Museum Mile.

What makes Hauser & Wirth Wooster Street special is the combination of global gallery power + SoHo art history + architectural character. It is a commercial gallery, but the exhibitions can feel museum-level in quality and ambition.

ArtLovers Tip

Visit Wooster Street as the downtown counterpoint to Hauser & Wirth Chelsea. Chelsea gives you scale; SoHo gives you history, streets, architecture and a more intimate New York art rhythm.

For Artlovers, it is worth including because it shows contemporary art in a more urban, downtown key: not only white cubes and mega-galleries, but the layered story of New York’s artists, lofts, galleries, streets and reinventions.
