Description

Hans Ulrich Obrist is the artistic director of the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington, west London, and is universally acknowledged as one of the most important and prolific art curators of our time. When I spoke to him at his office, I discovered a force of nature with an energy unlike that of anyone I’ve met before. His notion of home is also pretty extreme. When he was a student, he turned his flat into a gallery and he’s lived in some of the world’s most famous house-museums. This episode doesn’t follow the usual format, but I think it’s a really interesting portrait of a brilliant man. This conversation was recorded in person in Hans Ulrich Obrist’s office at the Serpentine gallery. For more: Head over to our website for more images of the places discussedVisit The Serpentine Gallery Sign up to The Modern House newsletter for weekly interiors inspiration Check out Matt Gibberd’s latest book, A Modern Way To Live This episode was produced by Kate Taylor of Feast Collective and Hannah Phillips from The Modern House.
