About VOLTA NY

 

VOLTA NY is an invitational show of emerging solo artists’ projects and the American incarnation of the successful young fair founded in Basel in 2005. VOLTA NY was conceived in 2008 by Artistic Director Amanda Coulson as a tightly-focused, boutique event that is a place for discovery, a showcase for relevant art contemporary positions regardless of the artist's or gallery’s age.

 

By refocusing on artists through solo projects, VOLTA NY promotes a deep exploration of the work of its selected participants and offers the opportunity for discoveries beyond those afforded by a traditional art fair.

 

In 2013 the invitational fair inaugurates its new location 82MERCER in SoHo, by showcasing 95 international galleries, spanning 6 continents and spotlighting artists from 38 nations.

 

 

A platform for challenging, often complementary, sometimes competing ideas about contemporary art, the strictly solo format is what gives the New York fair its unique character.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Congratulations on a successful edition of VOLTA NY with 22.000 visitors! It was a fruitful stay in New York and now I am back at the gallery with plenty of energy and positive vibes!

We also want to take this opportunity to thank you for such a wonderful experience at Volta this year. Wonderful venue and all, but really what made it a most special and memorable experience was the VOLTA team.

– Galerie Stefan Röpke, Cologne (returning exhibitor)

 

 

The event in retrospect, has been the most rewarding and complete project that we have undertaken as a publication, and we thank you each for the role that you played in liaising with us to have things run so smoothly and efficiently.

We had a great deal of fun and got a great sense of the image, idea and intention of VOLTA NY.

We visited VOLTA yesterday and it was instantly clear that the new space is a great fit for the fair! Great energy, great layout and continuity throughout the floors. You've done a tremendous job bringing your vision to the next level, so congratulations on putting together a fantastic event!

Just to add my voice to the chorus of well-wishers: I loved this year’s VOLTA. It was the best fair this year and also the best VOLTA so far. The Soho venue was terrific! I’m looking forward to next year’s fair!
