Artbook @ Hauser & Writh : the most powerful and influential figures in the art world from Zurich colonized their art forms in New York, Los Angeles, London, ofc their homeland Zurich, Paris, French & Hong Kong. Remember without " the writer", there's no Torah, Bible or Quran. Thus, with a single non-reader, there's no official religions on Earth. That's how vital to read and write in the civilized society. The independent book stores has been shut down since pandemic & they need to survive post pandemic and creepy AI writing era. There is no sentimental about holding the book in your hands and reading it. The sounds of turning page to page makes your day lighter instead of scanning on the screen and scrolling down on iPad or whatever your laptop or monitor. The price is rightfully & I glad I bump into this. The museum is ok, which I didn't review about it but you have your reason for buying anything, books included helps you separate emotionally shopping. This could be an open spring door to dreamy art-book store in Downtown, Art district. It did remind me of independent bookstore on Lower East Side, NYC when I was young. Why wait? Go get some!

This bookshop is located within the greater Hauser & Wirth establishment. As the name of this shop implies, this bookstore focuses on books by and about art and artists. What they offer is a very good selection of art related books. This is a fairly small shop. But, that is not meant as a discouragement in any way. Their shelves are stocked full of great volumes of exceptional publications. They also offer a few other items like art related trinkets and the like. What I like best about this shop is that you can pop in at any time and find that great book that you may not even know existed. Whether it is a book by or about a well-known or an up and coming artist or the volumes of poetry books they offer, or that anything else, this is a great place to buy that book for your collection or for that gift that you want to give to that special individual. Great Shop!

Staff were smug and rude and the variety this wasn’t much of a bookstore just over priced books on art not much variety to be found here, I’ll give this store 1 year before they close.

Wide selection of current publications on contemporary art and the humanities to contextualize art practice and criticism in unexpected and compelling ways.

I was visiting from out of town and thought I'd drop in and find something after finishing what i brought with me. But no, this store had other plans. Almost every book i recognized was one that i already loved. I found out about wakefield press from their paperbook section, so many great titles i had never heard of and then the real thing that makes this place perfect was that the big stack of thick photo and art books i found (a collection of life drawings of iggy pop? Jayne mansfield and anton levey? Vogueing? Angela davis in e germany? I did not know i needed these but i did) Etc but didn't want to carry? They shipped them, free of charge and not like Amazon shipped them banging around and arriving dented but meticulously wrapped and they arrived today in perfect condition. Thank you so much, i will be visiting this store any time I'm in the area till foreverSuch a beautiful space with a perfectly curated selection. Wish you had a space in Detroit

(Translated by Google) If you go inside rather than at the entrance, you'll find a cute space with pretty colors.(Original)입구쪽보단 안쪽으로 쭈욱 들어가면 색감 넘 이쁜 아기자기한 공간이 있습니다.

This lovely book store is always crowded, but never feels overwhelmed. There is always an area that you can find to relax and make your special space. Hauser & Wirth Bookstore has many options of books, magazines and literature that can relax and prepare you for the buzz and bustle of the city outside the walls of this bookstore.

The store is divided into sections. As you walk in, New books to the right for example. They are then further organized by subject matter, fiction, non- fiction, award winners etc. The sections cover many interests: science, business, food and drink, education, mathematics, programming, child care, psychology, relationships, personal finance, self-help, sci-fi, writing, film and many, many others.

Low key a great book store. Differnt than your standard Barnes and Noble. Haha so very different. In such a good way. Small but tasteful. The front desk plays some low key dope music. Lots of art magazine and books. You can definitely lose a few hours here and come out inspired. The have a great kids area with awsome books.
