SUMMARY:Noguchi’s New York
DESCRIPTION:In 1922\, Isamu Noguchi first moved to New York—a city that would remain his on-again\, off-again home for the remainder of his life. Though he was an avid traveler who built meaningful connections and temporary homes around the world\, Noguchi always returned to New York. It was here that he created some of his most iconic artworks and imagined countless others. \nThis exhibition examines Noguchi’s deep and dynamic relationship with New York City\, exploring how its material\, cultural\, social\, and political landscape indelibly transformed his artwork and thinking\, and how he in turn transformed the city. It also highlights Noguchi’s unflagging attempts to give back by sculpting communal spaces for exploration and play—efforts often thwarted\, most notably by the influential NYC Parks Commissioner Robert Moses. \nNoguchi’s New York encompasses more than 50 works\, including sculptures\, project models\, photographs\, and archival materials. The exhibition also brings to life Noguchi’s visions for unrealized playgrounds and playground equipment through a series of hand-painted animated films by Jack Cunningham and Nicolas Ménard of Eastend Western. \nOrganized on the 40th anniversary of The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum\, this exhibition celebrates the Museum itself as one of Noguchi’s most profound gifts to this city he called home. \nPhoto credit: Isamu Noguchi\, 1980

SUMMARY:A Legacy Continued: Recent Acquisitions to the Asia Society Museum Collection
DESCRIPTION:A Legacy Continued features recent acquisitions received from Sandra Ferry Rockefeller and Hope Aldrich in honor of their parents\, John D. Rockefeller 3rd and Blanchette Hooker Rockefeller. These gifts were originally part of Mr. and Mrs. Rockefeller’s personal collection\, and this display celebrates their homecoming. These pieces complement other works within the museum collection\, some of which are included in this exhibition. Together\, they offer greater opportunities for comparative studies among them. \nTwo Chola bronze statues of Hindu deities from Hope Aldrich—a Shiva and a Satyabhama—add to the already magnificent group of Indian Chola bronzes in the collection. From Sandra Ferry\, two lovely gilt bronze Chinese Buddhist statues augment the museum’s existing Chinese Buddhist sculptures\, while the addition of three Thai works furthers the collection’s strength in Southeast Asian sculpture. See Selected Works in the Exhibition to preview some of these important gifts.

SUMMARY:Busy\, Busy Towns: Moving Images of a Changing Asia
DESCRIPTION:This selection of works from the Asia Society Museum Collection explore how rapidly evolving cultural\, political\, and ecological issues have shaped urban landscapes across contemporary Asia\, and in particular China\, Indonesia\, and Taiwan. The exhibition presents seven works featuring the artists Song Dong\, Chen Shaoxiong\, Tromarama\, and Chen Chieh-jen. The innovative range of styles implemented to produce these moving images—through stop-motion animation of woodcuts\, ink painting\, or embroidery—among other methods\, speaks to the creative depth and diversity of the region. The artists explore the dynamic energy of cities\, whether fueled by consumerism and gentrification or by collapsing industries and environmental degradation. Actively reflecting on the regeneration of cityscapes and the subsequent impact on urban lives\, these works initiate a renewed dialogue with the current exhibition\, (Re)Generations: Rina Bannerjee\, Bryon Kim\, and Howardena Pindell amid the Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller 3rd Collection.

SUMMARY:Buddha and Shiva\, Lotus and Dragon
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of Asia Society’s seventieth anniversary\, Asia Society Museum presents Buddha and Shiva\, Lotus and Dragon: Celebrating 70 Years of Asia Society and the Rockefeller Legacy. \nDisplaying seventy of the finest examples of Asian art in the United States drawn from Asia Society’s permanent collection\, the exhibition showcases the extraordinary range of bronzes\, ceramics\, and metalwork thoughtfully assembled between the 1950s and the 1970s by John D. Rockefeller 3rd (1906-1978) and his wife Blanchette Hooker Rockefeller (1909-1992). John D. Rockefeller 3rd founded Asia Society in 1956 with the mission to promote greater knowledge of Asia in the United States; the bequest of the collection to Asia Society in 1979 underscores the Rockefellers’ conviction that an aesthetic encounter with great works of art promotes deep cross-cultural understanding. \nWith highlights including spectacular Buddhist and Hindu sculptures\, and rare Chinese\, Korean\, and Japanese ceramics\, Buddha and Shiva\, Lotus and Dragon celebrates historic achievements in Asian art spanning more than two millennia. The exhibition foregrounds the transformative power of faith and the catalyzing potential of international trade in the creation of great works of art across Asia. \nBuddha and Shiva\, Lotus and Dragon presents a special opportunity for museum visitors to experience the unparalleled quality of the Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller Thrid Collection at its home at Asia Society Museum in New York City.

SUMMARY:Shu Lea Cheang\, LOVER LOVE
DESCRIPTION:LOVER LOVE\, a new commission for the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art by Shu Lea Cheang\, begins with a portal. A window is flung open and the gray wall of an apartment block dissolves into a turbulent\, overcast sky\, against which a smoky being is enveloped by a six-winged seraphim—an angel of the highest order. \nThis opening transition is both a gesture to Cheang’s longtime collaborator\, musician Aérea Negrot (1980–2023)\, who died by suicide\, and a marker of an entry into a hybrid space of documentation and imagination. For this film\, presented as a four-channel installation\, Cheang worked with eight intergenerational performers in Tucson\, Arizona\, all of whom contributed their own experiences\, narratives\, and dreams of and for trans and gender nonconforming life in today’s United States. \nThis collaboratively scripted film moves between physical and virtual space: between performances in a motel room\, a junkyard\, and city streets amid surrounding nature\, we can see desert plants blooming anthropomorphic appendages and souls escaping inhuman oppression to take transhuman flight. \nThe gallery’s four screens\, themselves portals to the film’s world\, can be shifted by viewers into and out of the path of each projector. Each movement triggers a segment of Negrot’s 2011 track “It’s Lover\, Love”—a dreamy\, minimalist meditation on the lingering traces of broken promises and vanished love. These aural and physical shifts create new compositions\, morphing the installation into an active landscape in which to navigate agency\, survival\, and intimacy in a time of escalating political precarity.

SUMMARY:Bangladesh Not "Bhaangadesh"
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition explores how Bangladeshis in Bangladesh and beyond took actions during the 2024 mass uprisings against the quota system in place\, since 1972\, immediately after the birth of the country in 1971. Featuring articles such as printed international artworks by Bangladeshi artists\, handcrafted tools\, and relevant media\, the exhibition serves as a homage to learn\, reflect\, discuss\, and heal. \nBangladesh\, Not “Bhaangadesh” seeks to raise social (in)justice awareness through showcasing Bangladeshi artistic expression\, and persistent crimes against humanity from the summer of 2024–of government-implemented curfews\, with “shoot-on-sight” commands\, country-wide internet revoked\, houses raids\, innocent lives taken\, and unnecessary arrests made\, etc. After decades of corruption and nepotism\, Bangladeshi students stood up against the unjust quota system of prioritizing government positions rather than basing hiring on skill\, talent\, and merit–for descendants of ancestors prominent in the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Ed Young’s Bright Worlds
DESCRIPTION:For over 60 years\, Ed Young (1931–2023) invigorated the world of children’s books through intimate storytelling\, inventive artistry\, and potent emotionality. This first U.S. retrospective features original artwork from 15 of his most significant projects—focusing on works drawn from his personal story and Chinese folktales—alongside a selection of his sketchbooks\, family photos\, and personal effects. \nYoung achieved distinction as a beloved storyteller and illustrator who challenged younger audiences with pictorial and moral complexity. He was a towering figure in children’s literature\, reaching wide audiences while earning the field’s top honors. His retelling of the Chinese “Little Red Riding Hood\,” Lon Po Po\, introduced generations of children to Chinese folklore and won the Caldecott Medal; he also received two Caldecott Honors for earlier works. Across his career\, he garnered numerous accolades\, including multiple selections for The New York Times’ “10 Best Illustrated Children’s Books” list. \nThe exhibition traces Young’s family life in Shanghai\, where he was the fourth youngest of five children. As a teenager\, he and his brother were sent to live in Hong Kong to flee the civil war in China. He immigrated to America for college\, eventually earning an art degree from the ArtCenter School in Los Angeles\, and then moved to New York. “I set out with $20 borrowed money in my pocket to bet my life in New York City\,” he wrote. After being laid off from an advertising studio\, he submitted sketches to children’s book publisher Ursula Nordstrom\, who hired him to illustrate The Mean Mouse and Other Mean Stories (1962)\, launching a career that would span over 100 books. \nHis most memorable projects were deeply personal. Ed Young’s Bright Worlds guides viewers through key moments of his life and oeuvre with original artwork from The House Baba Built (2011)\, about his childhood in Japan-occupied Shanghai; Voices of the Heart (1997)\, exploring Chinese culture through the relationship between writing\, image and his lifelong tai chi practice; My Mei Mei (2006)\, on adopting his daughters; and Bright World (2024)\, a book published posthumously in China\, meditating on the cyclical nature of life. \n“So many of us grew up on Ed Young’s art and storytelling\,” said Herb Tam\, MOCA’s Chief Curator. “This exhibition will reveal what went into crafting masterworks of the children’s book form. Visitors will be enchanted by his fluent handling of media—from pastel and cut paper to pen\, ink\, and collage—and inspired by his story as a resourceful immigrant striving to make his mark in a creative field.” \n“As a father of three\, I’ve seen firsthand how children’s books shape the way we see the world\,” said Michael Lee\, MOCA’s President. “The imagery and storytelling stay with us—they become part of our family conversations\, our imaginations\, and even the way we share stories later in life. It’s a special honor to explore the life and mind of Ed Young\, whose work has inspired generations. Through this exhibition\, we not only celebrate his extraordinary achievements but also revisit how deeply his art was shaped by his journey as a Chinese American—reflecting his early life in China and the graceful balance he found as a lifelong practitioner of tai chi.” \nEd Young’s Bright Worlds is part of MOCA’s Luminaries for America250\, a yearlong celebration of Chinese American historymakers at the Semiquincentennial.

SUMMARY:Art Exhibit: Shared Lines: Asian American Stories on Route 66
DESCRIPTION:Route 66 might be the U.S.’s most famous highway. Traversing the country from Santa Monica\, CA to Chicago\, IL\, it’s been immortalized in songs\, books\, and movies. But along that iconic highway are stories that are far lesser known. \nWith a grant from the National Trust for Historic Preservation\, illustrator Sammy Yuen set out on a roadtrip to capture those stories. This exhibition — coinciding with Route 66’s 100th anniversary this fall — brings some of them to life. \nLike the stone guardian lions that appeared out of nowhere in Amboy\, CA\, a former ghost town purchased by Japanese American restaurateur and preservationist\, Albert Okura. The water towers in Kingman\, AZ that once supported operations of the railroad built by Chinese laborers. The Chinese American Museum of Chicago\, housed in an erstwhile tofu factory donated by Chinese immigrant and grocery magnate Raymond Lee. \n“This whole journey started with my first exhibition at Pearl River Mart\,” says Sammy. “Showing my new exhibition there brings it back\, full circle. I also like the idea of exploring Asian American communities outside of New York City’s Chinatowns. Beyond Manhattan and Flushing. Sometimes it’s just a strip mall or restaurants spread out in an area. But the stories of the people are often the same.” \nJoin us for the opening reception on June 6. Attendance is free but registration is appreciated. \n\nOn view June 6 through Sept. 27 in the Pearl River Mart gallery at 452 Broadway\nFree and open to the public every day from 11 AM to 7 PM\nLearn more in our interview with Sammy\n\nSpecial thanks to the National Trust for Historic Preservation\, who provided curation for this exhibition. \nThis exhibition is dedicated to Sammy’s father\, Sammy Yuen\, Sr. (1935 to 2026)\, for his unwavering support of the people he loved. \nAbout the Artist\nSammy Yuen is an artist\, illustrator\, designer\, writer\, and martial arts instructor. He is the recipient of multiple grants\, including awards from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council\, the National Trust for Historic Preservation\, and the Asian American Arts Alliance. His work has been exhibited at Pearl River Mart\, the Chinese American Museum of Chicago\, and Google Arts & Culture. He is currently developing a multi-generational picture book inspired by his family’s martial arts legacy. \nWith over 20 years of experience in the publishing industry\, he has created book covers — including more than 35 New York Times bestsellers — as well as marketing and advertising materials\, animated videos\, and social media assets. Across all of his work\, his goal is to tell stories that engage audiences and spark conversation.

SUMMARY:New York Asian Film Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:This year’s program features more than 50 filmmakers\, ranging from acclaimed veterans to exciting new voices\, who will be on hand for post-screening Q&As and special appearances\, giving audiences an insider’s look into the stories behind their work. \nTickets will go on sale on Thursday\, June 18 at 2pm\, with an early access period for FLC and NYAFF Members starting on Thursday\, June 18 at noon. \nComplete lineup to be announced soon! Sign up for updates. \nTwenty-five years ago\, the New York Asian Film Festival started by screening the most exciting new films from Hong Kong\, Korea\, and Japan. A quarter century on\, Film at Lincoln Center (FLC) and the New York Asian Film Foundation announce the first highlights of the 25th New York Asian Film Festival (NYAFF)\, a landmark anniversary edition celebrating 25 years of championing the filmmakers\, stars\, and cinematic movements that have shaped the future of Asian cinema. Running from July 10 to July 26 across five New York venues\, including Film at Lincoln Center\, SVA Theatre\, IFC Center\, Anthology Film Archives\, and the Korean Cultural Center New York\, NYAFF 2026 marks a major milestone for North America’s leading festival of Asian cinema. Screenings at FLC take place July 10–23\, and two venues are homecomings: Anthology Film Archives (where the festival began in 2002) on July 16–18\, and IFC Center (the festival’s home for four formative editions) on July 13\, 15\, 16\, and 22. \n“We are proud to support the 25th edition of the New York Asian Film Festival\, and uplift the stories of Asian communities in NYC and beyond\,” said Commissioner Rafael Espinal of the NYC Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment. “Festivals like NYAFF are an extremely vital part of the city’s filmmaking and entertainment ecosystem\, and create platforms and opportunities to expose New Yorkers to new and diverse storytelling.” \nOpening Night on July 10 at FLC will feature the North American premiere of Yeon Sang-ho’s Colony\, the highly anticipated Korean box-office sensation fresh from its world premiere in Cannes’ Midnight Screenings program—the same section that launched Train to Busan 10 years ago. Already the fastest Korean hit of the year\, the film locks its survivors inside a central Seoul high-rise while a virus tears through the floors quicker than anyone can say “zombie.” Jun Ji-hyun (Gianna Jun) plays the biotech professor who turns reluctant hero\, alongside Ji Chang-wook\, Koo Kyo-hwan\, and Shin Hyun-been. Yeon Sang-ho will be in person on Opening Night ahead of the film’s August 28 theatrical release. \nColony arrives after Korean cinema’s strongest box-office rebound since the pandemic. NYAFF is planning a special presentation of the year’s other biggest hit: The King’s Warden\, now the highest-grossing Korean film of all time\, starring Yoo Hae-jin (Exhuma) and Park Ji-hoon. One film broke the all-time record. The other got to the top faster than anything else this year. Both are at the 25th edition of NYAFF. \nFollowing Colony’s premiere on July 10\, the Opening Night Market returns to the Frieda and Roy Furman Gallery at Film at Lincoln Center’s Walter Reade Theater for an annual gathering of the NYAFF community with live music and Asian street food. \nThe festival is presented with major support from the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in New York (HKETONY)\, The Ministry of Culture of Thailand and the Department of Cultural Promotion\, Fundstrat Global Advisors\, BitMine\, Cathay Pacific\, Taipei Cultural Center of TECO in New York\, Korean Cultural Center New York (KCCNY)\, and Korean Film Council (KOFIC) whose partnership amplifies Asian cinema’s most vital voices. \nLearn more here.

SUMMARY:Transcendence
DESCRIPTION:Fou Gallery is pleased to present Transcendence\, a group exhibition featuring Tianshu Zhang (张天舒)\, Tao Xian(陶显)\, and Gloria Fan Duan(樊段晓春)\, on view from July 11 through September 5\, 2026. \nAs in the philosophy of the I-Ching [易经]\, the world is not an empty abstraction\, but a living structure of patterns through which all things transform. At a moment when attention is increasingly pulled outward by speed\, image\, and instability\, Transcendence turns inward\, inviting viewers to explore within for the subtle flow of energy that connects body\, mind\, and the natural world. \nBringing together painting and sculpture\, the exhibition considers abstraction not as a rejection of form\, but as a way of approaching what cannot be fully represented: spirit\, dream\, memory\, and the quiet forces that shape both human and natural existence. Through bodies\, imagined organisms\, and reconstructed botanical forms\, Transcendence explores the traces of inner energy moving between consciousness and the unconscious\, creating a path for viewers to enter a realm of inner light\, meditation\, and spiritual perception. \nFor Tianshu Zhang\, painting emerges from the threshold between dream and embodiment. Drawing inspiration from the imperceptible yet constant flow of Qi\, her paintings seek a balance between silhouette-like structures and fluid movement. Through layered brushwork\, Zhang evokes the body in abstraction\, where flesh\, spine\, and inner currents appear only partially\, as if sensing the presence of energy moving within. The body becomes a vessel through which consciousness moves between memory\, desire\, vulnerability\, and transformation. \nTao Xian approaches this spiritual interiority through the imagined life of nature. Drawing from Daoist thought\, Jungian psychology\, and organic forms\, she creates luminous semi-abstract paintings that occupy a space between organism and inner landscape. In works inspired by deep-sea plants and imagined botanical forms\, Tao allows imagination to become a mode of perception\, suggesting a silent energy shared between the individual soul and the larger universe. The visible traces of nature become vessels for psychic and spiritual life\, where the boundary between self and world remains fluid. \nGloria Fan Duan extends the exhibition’s inquiry into nature\, perception\, and unseen forces through a practice situated at the intersection of art\, science\, and technology. Conceived during NARS Foundation (Brooklyn\, New York)\, An And Foundation (Wassaic\, New York) and Fou Gallery’s Tulum Residency (Mexico)\, the series presented in this exhibition combines cast resin and glass flowers\, leaves\, and stems with handmade vessels\, assembling them into sculptural installations inspired by Japanese ikebana. Through mediation\, preservation\, and deliberate arrangement\, Duan reconstructs nature in translucent botanical forms that hover between specimen and offering\, garden and laboratory\, occupying a threshold between existence and non-existence. No longer living plants yet still carrying the trace of organic life\, these works offer a material counterpart to Zhang’s bodily energies and Tao’s imagined spiritual organisms. The processes of preservation\, reproduction\, and arrangement become forms of meditation\, suggesting that the artificial may also serve as a vessel for care\, ecological memory\, and spiritual attention. \nThrough the body\, the imagined organism\, and the reconstructed garden\, form becomes a threshold through which inner energy\, memory\, and spiritual perception may appear. Rather than presenting transcendence as escape\, the exhibition understands it as a process of attunement\, a way of sensing what exists beneath the visible. Installed as a quiet and immersive environment\, Transcendence invites viewers to move through the works as they might move through a breath cycle\, a dream\, or a moment of meditation\, entering a space where the visible world opens onto its unseen dimensions. In this suspended space\, transcendence becomes a quiet practice of returning to the energies that bind the self to the world.

SUMMARY:Studio Ghibli VGM & Anime Jazz x Eternal Wind Music
DESCRIPTION:Owen Chen leads Eternal Wind\, a New York-based guitar-led jazz ensemble that reimagines beloved Studio Ghibli\, anime\, and film soundtracks through modern jazz improvisation. The musical arrangements include Ghibli favorites such as Spirited Away\, Princess Mononoke\, anime classics such as Your Name\, Cowboy Bebop\, and video games such as Kingdom Hearts\, Legend of Zelda\, and many more. \nDrawing from bebop\, post-bop\, and contemporary jazz — fusing influences from classical\, world music\, pop\, and R&B — Eternal Wind reshapes familiar themes into music that BroadwayWorld describes as “intimate\, restless\, nostalgic and alive\,” with “tender\, almost aching arrangements… nostalgia that made the room go quiet.” Paris-Move praises the ensemble’s “ability to build bridges between cultures while forging a sound entirely its own\,” calling the music “immediately accessible while remaining remarkably complex” with “a cinematic quality\, painting landscapes and characters through melody and offering listeners not just music but immersive worlds.” Their debut album The Ghibli Collection is out now on Origin Records. \nhttps://eternalwindmusic.com \nDoors 6:30pm / Show 7pm \nAll events are 21+\, and a valid physical ID is required for entry. 2-drink minimum per person.
