Press Release
Nine is pleased to announce its inaugural exhibition Group Shower, opening on October 10, 2025, from 6 PM to 9 PM. The exhibition is collaboratively curated by blue boy, Curmudgeon, Living Skin, and Service—the four projects anchoring the new space.
Located at the basement of 9 Monroe St, Nine is a new curatorial partnership in Manhattan’s Two Bridges, bringing together artist-run and alternatively driven projects to a shared home for experimentation and collective imagination. Established through a network of peers sourced by Living Skin to push the narrative of alternative spaces, Nine houses rotating exhibitions, public programs, and community-centered activations. The four co-resident initiatives each hold distinct and independent approaches, while intersecting around values of care, attention, and transformation:
Together, the collective is dedicated to advancing critical dialogue around alternative curatorial and artistic practices, foregrounding experimentation as a vital force within contemporary art. By supporting underrepresented perspectives, fostering interdisciplinary exchange, and connecting regional and metropolitan contexts, Nine functions as both a site of artistic experimentation and a hub for public engagement.
