Freight + Volume Gallery

Established by Nick Lawrence (co-founder and former partner of LFL Gallery in New York and owner of "DNA Gallery in Provincetown, MA) in 2005, Freight + Volume was formed by combining the text-based, narrative philosophy and limited edition book focus of its two-year predecessor, Volume, with the motivation to show dynamic, visceral, and provocative new work in all media and dealing with a range of subject matter.

General information

Freight + Volume is dedicated to showcasing the work of emerging and established artists, and in particular work which is innovative and not afraid to take risks. While Freight + Volume is especially interested in narrative and text-based material, ultimately our predominant criteria is the quality of the work itself, regardless of technique, content or style; with the motivation to show dynamic, visceral, and provocative new work in all media and dealing with a range of subject matter. In keeping with the tradition of publishing, with which the gallery was founded, Freight + Volume magazine was launched as an outlet to learn about the artists with whom the gallery works, as well as their friends and influences. The magazine is a medium through which to explore not only the work of our artists, but the creative process and the cult of personality. In addition, Freight+Volume regularly publishes limited-edition artists' books.

"While energy might seem an elusive metric for discussing art, it has something to do with the artists’ physical engagement with their materials and the ways in which that relationship is transmitted back to the viewer."
