About

OHWOW collaborates with various creative sectors, producing projects and retail initiatives, extending its vision internationally. As a gallery, OHWOW organizes solo, collective, and group exhibitions, alongside presenting special projects and events conceived by outside curators. As a publisher, OHWOW's books fill a particular niche, from exhibition catalogs to specific artist pieces.

OHWOW’s community of artists includes Daniel Arsham, Tim Barber, Scott Campbell, Michael Genovese, Luis Gispert, José Parlá, Aurel Schmidt, David Benjamin Sherry, Lucien Smith, Agathe Snow, and Aaron Young. Previous group exhibitions have featured work by artists including Diana Al-Hadid, Rita Ackermann, Tauba Auerbach, Dan Colen, Terence Koh, Harmony Korine, Nate Lowman, Ryan McGinley, Mariah Robertson, Shinique Smith, and Dash Snow.

As of spring 2011, OHWOW opened an additional gallery location in Los Angeles, designed by New York architect Rafael de Cárdenas.^[2]
