In early 2023, artist Mary Temple had an idea for a show based on Rebecca Solnit's 2021 book Orwell's Roses, which explores George Orwell's love of gardening. 'I wanted to include artists who found sustenance in the landscape in various ways,' Temple explained.
Now, with four exhibitions in the books - including a recent drawing show featuring works by Katherine Bradford, Sheila Pepe, Holly Coulis, and Richard Tinkler, among many others - Temple beams as she describes the sense of community and togetherness that each opening brings to the neighborhood.
A staple of the Hong Kong art scene since the early 1980s, Alisan Fine Arts landed in New York City this winter with a new space on the Upper East Side, its first in the United States.
The gallery builds on its programming focused on Chinese American and other Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) artists - such as the new generation of artists engaging with cultural identity, social issues, and personal narratives in their work.
