- - anonymous is proud to inaugurate its New York City location with the forthcoming project, Hello? God Is The Space Between Us. Organized in collaboration with artist and poet Cristine Brache, the project will feature poetry from artists working across visual, written, and performative disciplines. The project will be expressed in multiple forms and disseminated through a call-in phone line, a series of opt-in text messages; the production and release of a limited edition vinyl album; public interventions; and a gallery presentation in New York, and later in Mexico City.

October 30th - November 20th anonymous will open its New York space at 136 Baxter Street to an audible exhibition. A single record player will broadcast the powerful poetic readings by artists: Cristine Brache, CAConrad, Anaïs Duplan, Penny Goring, Rob Goyanes, E. Jane, Rindon Johnson, Cole Lu, Sara Magenheimer, Eileen Myles, Precious Okoyomon, Umar Rashid, Martine Syms, dana washington-queen, and Tanaya Winder.

Simultaneously, and over the course of the next three months the gallery will release a new poem each week.

• To listen from anywhere in the world dial +1-(920)-690-6669.
• To receive each poem in written form by way of text message: Text POEM to 31996 to receive each poem in English. Text POEMA to 31996 to receive each poem in Español.

As each new poem becomes available the gallery will notify audiences through instagram @anonymousgallery, newsletter and online at www.anonymousgallery.com.

With little prerequisite, each writer was given room to submit work honoring their own stories speaking to, and from, fundamentally different lived experience. As if capturing a photograph of an emotion or a moment in time, each reading necessarily speaks to the current state of affairs, as well as the nature of time. Once assembled, these individual perspectives coalesce to create a time capsule. Through this collective lens of shared history, unified through process, Hello? God Is The Space Between Us documents today’s existence.

The Exhibition located on 136 Baxter St. will be available to the public by appointment during 12-6, each day until November 3rd , and thereafter 12 – 6pm, Tuesday – Friday until November 20th. During the exhibition, the space should be honored as a site of intermission and reflection.

The project will culminate with the release of a vinyl album featuring the audio from each poet, with unique inserts and album cover. Sold as a limited edition, proceeds will be donated to charity. The project will conclude, in its entirety, on January 20th , 2021.

Additional announcements and initiatives will be made throughout. For more information, contact hello@anonymousgallery or visit www.anonymousgallery.com and instagram @anonymousgallery.
