TRIENNIAL
2020
We Do Not
Dream Alone
Back
in April, we told you about the Asia Society Triennial, a festival of
art, ideas, and innovation, coming to various locations in New York
City starting in spring 2020.
Yesterday Asia Society announced the initial list of artists
participating in We Do Not Dream Alone — the
multi-venue art exhibition at the center of the Triennial. You can check
out the exciting roster of talent here.
Featuring approximately 40 artists and artist groups, We Do Not Dream Alone
reflects the diversity of contemporary art from Asia and the diaspora.
It will celebrate the rich tapestry of Asian cultures that comprise a
significant, yet historically underserved, demographic within New York
City.
The exhibition will open to the public on June 5, 2020, and continue
through August 9. For more information, please visit AsiaSociety.org/Triennial.
