The photobook When Two or More Are Gathered Together by Neal Slavin explores group portraits through a meticulous visual strategy of collective composition. Slavin’s images present individuals assembled in tightly arranged clusters, emphasizing social dynamics and the relationships within communal settings.

With a keen eye for detail and uniformity, the photographs balance individuality and conformity, capturing a mood that is both formal and subtly intimate. The work examines themes of identity, unity, and the tension between the individual and the collective in a nuanced photographic style.

Published in 1976 by Farrar Straus Giroux, the book comprises 136 pages of carefully composed group portraits, offering a distinctive study of social interaction mediated through photographic arrangement.
