This July, Art House Productions in Jersey City is hosting a special art show called Art Outside of Architecture. It started Saturday, July 5, and runs through Sunday, July 27, 2025, at the Art House Gallery, which is located inside The Hendrix building at 345 Marin Boulevard.
The exhibit features twelve architects who helped design The Hendrix. These architects are showing their personal artwork, pieces they created outside of their usual work designing buildings. Visitors will get to see how these designers express their creativity in a different way.
- Art Outside of Architecture features twelve architects who designed The Hendrix, showcasing original artworks that depart from their architectural work.
- The exhibition runs from July 5–27, 2025, at Art House Gallery in Jersey City, with an opening reception on July 17 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
- All artworks are available for purchase in person and online, with gallery hours on Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
Twelve Architects Create Art Beyond Building Design
The artists in this show are Eldion Habazaj, Farah Jalil, Alexander Mailloux, Vincent Marchetto, Alexander Mayorga, Tyler McCleary, Robert Morgan, Chloe Morris, Federico Patino, Weston Ryder, Zeel Parekh Singh, and Emil Stojakovic. All twelve of them worked on designing The Hendrix building. Now, they are showing a different side of their talent.
Rather than working with blueprints and building codes, they created personal art using styles like bold abstract paintings, surreal landscapes, photography, and detailed drawings. Each artist has a unique way of expressing ideas, and their artwork is different not only from their architectural designs but also from each other’s styles.
According to Gallery Director Andrea McKenna, this show is special because it highlights the creative talents of the very people who designed the gallery space. She views it as a clear example of how artistic vision can extend beyond professional roles, showing how a career in architecture can evolve into fine art and connect the disciplines of design and personal expression.
