We are pleased to announce HEARTH––a special off-site group exhibition featuring works by CARO, Hugh Clemons, Nathan Dilworth, Courtney Duncan, Matthew Herriot, Zoe Koke, Natalie Smith and Vanessa Zarate.
Why do we gather around art? Why do we open our doors, raise our glasses, and linger in rooms filled with paintings, sculptures, or ideas made manifest? We do it to honor the work, and the maker; to celebrate creativity as we celebrate one another. It is the same impulse that brings us together at parties and dinners on or around the holidays: to commemorate memory, to commune with friends, family, and strangers alike, and to revel in the warmth of shared presence.
Some exhibitions are precise, cerebral, or conceptually rigorous. Others are lush, indulgent, or simply beautiful. But beyond discipline or style, there is a deeper joy in living with art—a more personal, particular intimacy. A home offers a stage unlike any gallery; it is where art can become a being, it can be activated, allowed to breathe, inhabit a space and dialogue with the life unfolding around it.
This season, I open my own home as a space for such intimacy: a holiday house show, a gathering of our friends, art community, and beyond, all who are curious, receptive, and willing to linger. This is art I have loved, art I continue to fall in love with, and art I hope others will live with, if only for a night. It is art not only to be seen and appreciated, but to be experienced.
I think of the salons of old: artists, writers, and thinkers convening in living rooms and studios, sharing ideas and company in equal measure. Why have we let this practice fade? Perhaps it is time to reclaim it, each in our own way. This show is one small gesture toward that revival––a chance to inhabit art, to converse, and to find comfort and kinship in uncertain times.
