After a decade-long curatorial career where he organized several pop-up exhibitions in New York, Vito Schnabel opened his own full-fledged gallery in the Swiss Alps in 2015, taking over the space previously occupied by the legendary Bruno Bischofsberger in the fashionable ski resort town of St. Moritz.
Representing a mixture of established artists such as Jeff Elrod, Urs Fischer, Sterling Ruby, and father Julian Schnabel, as well as mid-career artists Terence Koh and Harmony Korine, the young dealer’s program flaunts both rigor and star power.
