Everything All At Once

Everything Now All at Once reflects on the conditions of contemporary life shaped by immediacy, constant connectivity, and the collapse of temporal distance. Drawing from the Nasher Museum’s collection and contemporary works, the exhibition investigates how artists visualize and critique the sensation of living in a state of perpetual “now.” Through painting, sculpture, photography, installation, video, and mixed media, the exhibition foregrounds artistic strategies that address acceleration, fragmentation, and the overwhelming flow of images and information. Artists engage themes of technological mediation, political upheaval, environmental urgency, and social transformation, questioning how meaning is constructed in a landscape where everything appears to happen simultaneously. Presented by the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, Everything Now: All at Once invites visitors to slow down and reflect within an environment that mirrors and resists the speed of contemporary experience. The exhibition runs through November 1, 2026, in Durham, North Carolina.
