KIND OF SPACE.

Some work asks you to stop.
We believe it deserves a page.

SPREADS brings artists, images and ideas into an editorial setting. Room for the work. Room for the story. Room to look again.

About SPREADS

ARTISTS.
IDEAS.
PRACTICE.

A magazine by Arrival Gallery.
Built around the work.

Art does not end at the edge of an image. There is a way of seeing behind it: a question, a material, a process, a point of view.

SPREADS is a place to bring those things together. An invitation to spend more time with art and the people making it.

Four issues a year. Released October 1, January 1, April 1 and July 1.
