Wei-Ling Gallery and Ivan Lam will be making their debut at Volta New York in March 2016! They will be the only gallery from South East Asia represented at the invitational fair and one of three galleries from Asia. This will be the gallery’s first showing of Malaysian art in New York.
VOLTA NY is the invitational fair of solo artist projects and is the American incarnation of the original Basel VOLTA show, which was founded in 2005 by three art dealers as a fair “by galleries, for galleries”.
Since its debut in New York in 2008, Artistic Director Amanda Coulson re-conceived the format as a rigorously curated, boutique event — along the lines of a sequence of intense studio visits versus a traditional trade show environment. Since then VOLTA NY showcases relevant contemporary art positions from emerging international artists, from cutting-edge trendsetters to next year’s rising stars.
