No Place Like Home brings together seminal works made by Greene Naftali artists around the time of the gallery’s founding in the 1990s. As pandemic-era restrictions continue to lift, New York’s reopening marks a chance to reflect back on a year that many spent largely at home. Emerging from this period of relative confinement—in which both venturing out and staying in became newly fraught—this group exhibition reconsiders our attachments to home in all its complexities. Free of the nostalgia and sentimentality that so often cling to the domestic sphere, these works challenge clichéd notions of one’s living space as a respite or a locus of identity. They offer a countervision of home as a contested site to be analyzed, questioned, and reframed.
