Alone, Together: The Religion of Solitude

In a time when societal structures foster communication without true community, this show reclaims the bliss of solitary human experience—invoking a sense of nostalgia, quiet reflection, and the profound beauty found in solitude–luxuries too often overlooked in our impersonal world.

Parallel to our growing interconnectedness, there has been a quiet surrendering- a slowly lost sense of who we are when we are alone- whether that be Alone, Together: The Religion of Solitude bodies, minds, or simply in a space we feel at home. Moreover, to what extent has that same omnipresent power of connectivity shaped not just how we communicate, but who we are?

Our current architecture of society has blurred the boundaries between the public and private self–where there is a revised social contract in place that forces one to constantly perpetuate a persona. Most of modern life now unfolds through the viewing of these curated realities, essentially rewriting human experience entirely. This exhibition invites a return to introspection and presents an authenticity of solitude.

Featuring works by Claudia Doring Baez, Kyle Barnes, Reginald Baylor, Martin Eder, Iain Faulkner, Madeleine Gross, Henry Jabbour, Malcolm Liepke, J Louis, Sarah Muirhead, Yigal Ozeri, Joseph Parra, Reisha Perlmutter, Jarek Puczel, Chris Rivers, Christopher Thompson, Jack Tworkov, and Luciano Ventrone, Alone, Together: The Religion of Solitude presents the lone figure as a timeless symbol of individualism, power, freedom, and the human condition. These artists, through their diverse practices, reflect on personal and human experiences in an age of disembodied connection.

Alone, Together: The Religion of Solitude will open on November 1st, and will close on December 21st. The opening reception will be on November 1st. The exhibition is located at the gallery’s flagship location at 273 Church Street in New York City.
