Asian galleries move westward: their growing presence and influence in New York
Briefly

Founded in 1982, the artist collective Epoxy in New York City represents the intersection of diverse artistic practices influenced by their Hong Kong roots. This collective was part of a larger movement to promote Asian and diasporic voices in contemporary art. In recent years, New York has seen a resurgence of Asian cultural contributions, exemplified by the emergence of galleries like Kiang Malingue. Opening May 9 in the Lower East Side, this gallery aims to foster discussions between New York and Asia while showcasing emerging talents like Hiroka Yamashita, reflecting the ongoing cultural dialogue.
Epoxy, formed in 1982 by artists linked to Hong Kong, embodies collaborative art reflecting diasporic experiences, enhancing intercultural dialogue despite individual practices.
Kiang Malingue's new Lower East Side gallery, opening on May 9, symbolizes a bridge between cultures, infusing New York's contemporary art scene with Asian influence.
