Hans Ulrich Obrist takes top spot in 15th edition of ArtReview Power 100
List reflects the power of the transmission of ideas as well as objects
Swiss curator and artistic director of the Serpentine Galleries Hans Ulrich Obrist is number one in this year’s edition of the ArtReview Power 100
Hans Ulrich Obrist is artistic director of the Serpentine Galleries in London but his official role tells you very little about what it is that this Swiss curator actually does. When Obrist last topped the Power 100, in 2009, ArtReview quoted the opening point of the curatorial statement from his Beijing Mini Marathon of ideas: ‘Don’t stop. We never stop.‘ And Obrist singularly has not. The curator is famous for ignoring traditional constraints of both time (he works nearly constantly, and famously founded the Brutally Early Club, an open-to-all discussion group that meets at 6.30am) and geographic place (he is in perpetual motion, giving talks and doing interviews at nearly every significant art event around the globe), and a single institution could never hope to house the full breadth of his activities.»
