On November 14th, 2024, we hosted the opening reception for our latest gallery exhibition “About Face,” a captivating exploration of portraiture’s essence. Featuring the work of 23 talented artists, this group exhibition captures the delicate balance between presence and absence, revealing an unspoken dialogue in the quiet exchange of a glance.

Through the lenses of Leica photographers, “About Face” transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary reflections of the human gaze. Each portrait holds a unique stillness and intensity, offering a glimpse into lives captured in a single frame. These images transcend words, inviting viewers to connect on a universal level and see the essence of each subject.

The exhibition runs through January 11th, 2025, with collector prints available for acquisition. For more information, please contact the gallery or visit our Artsy page.
