The exhibition features the recent work of seven established and emerging artists including Lam Tung Pang, Yi Xin Tong, Kelly Wang, Peng Wei, Fu Xiaotong, Yang Yongliang, and Ni Youyu. More than 40 works – including paintings, photographs, installation, and video – will be exhibited, and many are being shown in New York for the first time.

Related programs include a Curator’s Talk with the artists on opening day, March 7th, from 6:30-8pm, as well as an Open House during Asia Week on Thursday, March 21st with free admission and light refreshments.
