Tell us about yourself:
We see ourselves as both gallerists and collectors. Since opening Fredericks & Freiser in 1996, we’ve spent nearly thirty years championing and collecting idiosyncratic, psychologically charged work. Our personal collection has been built slowly and with real intention, reflecting a long-term commitment to building depth within a core group of artists.
Q&A:
Q: What current art trends do you wish would die?

Q: What current art trends are you obsessed with?
A: We’re drawn to artists who build feeling into form, where emotion isn’t the subject but the engine driving the image.
Q: Most extreme thing you did to secure an artwork?
A: Driving an hour with a painting sticking out of the back of a convertible.
Q: Strangest collecting experience?
A: Bidding at a regional auction house in a strip mall next to a nail salon.
