Our exhibition In the Company of Still Life is now on view at ArtYard in Frenchtown, New Jersey through May 31, 2026. Thank you to everyone who has been visiting the gallery and who attended our curator and artist talks. Learn more about our upcoming events associated with this exhibition.

This exhibition explores the complex and enduring relationship between humans and objects through still-life paintings, prints, drawings, collage, sculpture, ceramics, photography, and found objects. Capturing the ordinary and extraordinary, in turns eternal and ephemeral, still lifes tell our stories by proxy, becoming vessels for presence and time. Work from the 1800’s to the present day by 40 artists from 10 countries is displayed in a series of distinct rooms inspired by homes, studios, and architectural spaces encountered and imagined by the curators. Visitors are welcomed into a space inspired by the specificity and intimacy of still life. In the Company of Still Life is a Kings Oaks project, curated by co-directors Alex Cohen and Clara Weishahn.
