Jane Lombard Gallery

Since its founding in 1995, Jane Lombard Gallery has established itself as a distinguished venue for contemporary art in New York City. Originally launched as Lombard Freid Projects in SoHo, the gallery quickly became known for its forward-thinking approach, showcasing artists whose work resonates with the pressing cultural, social, and political issues of our time. Over nearly three decades, Jane Lombard Gallery has cultivated a reputation for its rigorous, scholarly approach to curating a diverse and international roster of artists. These artists, working across a wide array of media—including painting, sculpture, photography, installation, and film—are united by their commitment to challenging and expanding the boundaries of artistic and socio-political discourse. The gallery’s program is defined by its global perspective, consistently foregrounding work that speaks to the complexities and nuances of contemporary life across cultures. Throughout its history, the gallery has played a pivotal role in the international art scene, forging collaborations with leading museums, institutions, and biennials worldwide. These partnerships have resulted in groundbreaking exhibitions and projects that have both broadened and deepened the gallery's influence on the global stage. Highlights include landmark exhibitions such as Lee Kit Hold your breath, dance slowly at The Walker Art Center (2016); a survey show of works by Michael Rakowitz which traveled from Whitechapel Gallery to Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea (2019); Dan Perjovschi’s installation at Documenta 15 (2022); LuYang’s presentation at the 59th Venice Biennale (2022); and Lee Mingwei Rituals of Care at the De Young Museum (2024) among others, which have solidified the gallery's position as a leader in contemporary art.
