Reynolds Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of “Shelf Life”, a group exhibition featuring the work of Hampton Boyer, Carolyn Case, Tori Cherry, Kevin Ford, Lou Haney, Jack Kenna, Andrew Leventis, Sylvio Lynch III, and Nick McPhail. The exhibition opens on Friday, September 26, 2025 with a public reception from 5-7pm at our Libbie Avenue location. The show runs through November 26.
“Shelf Life” features nine artists who reimagine the still life for the present moment. “Shelf Life”explores how contemporary painters are transforming traditional visual languages into fresh and unexpected forms. Historically a meditation on mortality, domesticity, and material abundance, the still life has long served as a stage for both restraint and excess. In “Shelf Life”, that tradition is expanded and reshaped—sometimes with reverence, often with humor — into something distinctly of now.
