北京前波畫廊大門前波畫廊的展覽主要包括兩種形式，一種是已經較有名氣的藝術家的個人展覽，另一種是由著名學者和藝評人策劃的主題展覽。在一些前波畫廊舉辦的富有創新意義的展覽中，也試圖著力探索了中國傳統藝術形式與當代藝術家實踐之間的關係。這些精心策劃的展覽，及時“報導”了中國的最新發展，常與舉辦的藝術家個人展覽的風格完全不同。在前波畫廊展覽的藝術家大都在中國已有一定聲譽，但對他們中許多人來說，在前波畫廊的個人展覽卻是在美國舉行的第一次個展。2007年前波畫廊在北京草場地藝術區開設了分館，其空間由艾未未設計。
前波畫廊的大部份展覽都配有圖錄，其中許多都由藝術家親自設計。
前波畫廊明年的展覽計畫將延續這種著名藝術家與年輕藝術家結合的成功方式。
Introduction
Since 2000,Christophe W. Mao has been committed to the careers of a select group ofChinese contemporary artists. He opened Chambers Fine Art in New York City in hopes of exhibiting and contextualizingthis developing genre to Western audiences.
The gallery programalternates between monographic exhibitions devoted to the work of establishedand emerging artists and thematic exhibitions organized by recognized scholarsand critics from China.While some artists FUSE traditional Chinese art forms with contemporarypractices, other artists present the face of contemporary China usingmultimedia techniques. This broad scope allows Chambers Fine Art to present avariety of mediums from video installations and large format photography toneo-classical ink painting and traditional paper-cutting.
Some notable exhibitionsat Chambers include: Rocks and Art: Nature Found and Made, in which Chinesescholar’s rocks were juxtaposed with works by contemporary artists includingBrice Marden, Roy Lichtenstein and Zhan Wang; Too Much Flavor, a survey of young artists including Hong Hao andShi Jinsong who responded to the sensory overload of modern life; andChopsticks, a joint exhibition withSong Dong and Yin Xiuzhen that reflected the trust and harmony of their workand life.
All of the exhibitionsat Chambers Fine Art are accompanied by catalogs designed by the artistthemselves with essays written by scholars and critics in the field. Thegallery has placed significant works by Hong Hao, Zhan Wang, Cai Guo-Qiang,Hong Lei and Wang Jianwei in major public and private collections. ChambersFine Art will continue to create provocative and intelligent exhibitions by influentialestablished artists and young emerging talents in China.

北京前波畫廊——庭院
推開艾未未設計的巨大雙葉木門的同時，也開啟了一座優美庭院的大門。坐落在東北角的古老桑樹來自於廣東藝術家鄭國谷的一個富有煽動性的作品。鄭國谷從天津附近的安定莊的農民手中議價購得一棵百年老樹，使之安家生長於北京前波畫廊的庭院之中。前波畫廊把該項目的全過程記錄在了《百年老樹再長一遍——鄭國谷新作》這本畫冊當中。
懸掛在畫廊庭院上空的兩件外型相同的金屬雕塑是宋東和尹秀珍的作品。這件作品來源於2002年由紐約前波畫廊支持組辦的名為——《筷子》的展覽。在這兩根“筷子”中，一根向院子中噴灑水霧，另一根內部的霓虹燈與水霧交相輝映，點亮了整個庭院。
多稜角石雕《莫愁》為2008年邱志傑前波畫廊個展中的作品。作品源自中國南方一個奉守孝道的女子投湖自盡的傳說。這件作品是由一塊嶙峋的江南假山石經機械式地削減而成，被削下來的石塊作為作品的一部分散落在主體岩石四周。《莫愁》是邱志傑《南京長江大橋》重點項目實施過程中的一個關鍵性作品。2009年初，這個項目便已經在尤倫斯當代藝術中心有所展現。詳見《莫愁——邱志傑近作》。
