Opening for Legacies: Asian American Art Movements in New York City
Legacies: Asian American Art Movements in New York City (1969-2001) is an expansive survey of rarely-seen artwork and archival material by artists that constitute and exceed “Asian American,” a label denoting a cultural and national identity invented in 1968. Utilizing an interdisciplinary and research-driven praxis, Legacies uncovers how artists of Asian descent have historically negotiated identity in America as a set of situated practices and institutional structures amidst transnational diasporas, racial phantasms, and political imaginaries.
The exhibition opens with a reception on Wednesday, September 11, 2024. No registration is required.
Date: September 10, 2024
Time: 5 pm - 7 pm
Where: 80WSE, 80 Washington Square East
