Walk in With Us
Walk into this gallery, and you might catch an artist hosting a sound bath, mid-gong. Or find yourself in a room bathed in apocalyptic orange light, silicone sculptures suspended from the ceiling, installations that feel more Mardi Gras than white cube.
Work here pulls from subcultures, music, fashion, and autobiography. You'll see female nudes that challenge the male gaze. Feminist takes on sexuality and desire that are fun, sharp, and visceral. When masculinity shows up, it gets interrogated and turned inside out.
The graffiti covering the silver-painted exterior is part of the invitation in. Don't miss the basement gallery/speakeasy, Sophie's Lounge, where the gallery vibe extends underground.
About the Gallery
Swedish photographer and publisher Sophie Mörnerstarted launched Capricious magazine in 2003 to champion queer, feminist, boundary-pushing photography and writing. In 2013, she expanded the enterprise into a gallery on Eldridge Street. By 2015, she renamed it Company, and in 2021, she moved the gallery to its current Elizabeth Street location, a former dry-goods warehouse converted into a 4,000-square-foot standalone gallery designed by BoND.
