[edit] IMG ARTISTS
IMG Artists LLC is a top universal performing arts management corporation that was acquired by International Management Group (IMG) in 1984. Chairman and CEO of IMG, Mark McCormack, bought out Hamlen/Landau, a small, New York based artist-management music agency, founded by Charles Hamlen and Edna Landau in 1979.
In September 2003, Barrett Wissman, an entrepreneur and former concert pianist, purchased IMG Artists from IMG parent Co. and turned it into the leading international arts management group with the most diverse lines of business. IMG Artists capabilities include the management and touring of the finest musicians, dance companies, orchestras, and attractions, as well as consulting and advisory work for independent clients, arts institutions, concert halls, and culturally engaged corporations. The main office for IMG Artists LLC is located in New York City’s prestigious Carnegie Hall Tower.
