SUMMARY:Modern Ink: Crossing Media\, Blending Cultures at Culture Lab LIC
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Thursday\, February 5\, 6 – 9pm\n​On view February 6 – March 29 during gallery hours:\nThursday & Friday\, 5-9pm\, and Saturday & Sunday\, 2-9pm \n​Visual art has been an essential component of human civilization for more than 3\,500 years. From the earliest ancient Greek palace murals to contemporary artistic practices\, art like language\, music\, and theater has evolved through ongoing cultural exchange. Art reflects human thought and artworks shape society; when these forces converge\, they generate profound creative energy. \nInk is the soul of Chinese art. In celebration of the 2026 Chinese New Year\, Culture Lab LIC presents Modern Ink: Crossing Media\, Blending Cultures\, a group exhibition of contemporary Chinese artists. The five participating artists each possess a distinctive style and unique artistic language. Through their works\, audiences can hear a voice that traverses Eastern and Western artistic media\, integrates the essence of both cultures\, and resonates with the pulse of contemporary society; they can also see conceptual expressions that range from the concentrated spirit of Chinese calligraphy and expressions to the Wall Street Series\, which is deeply connected to the realities of modern life. \n​Drawing on years of artistic practice\, the artists reveal both their personal creative pursuits and broader cultural concerns. These works invite viewers into a multilayered aesthetic experience while encouraging reflection on classical and contemporary art\, Eastern and Western traditions\, and the human condition of our time. \nArtists:\nLi Geng\nWang Houtang\nGan Yu\nQin Feng\nBian Hong \nCurator: Ethan Cohen\nAssistant Curators: Chere Hong and Jessica Yang\nAcademic Host: Tess Howsam and Gan Yu\n​Full support from Culture Lab LIC\, New York \nGenerous sponsorship from Kung-Fu Ink\, Inc.\, New York \nFree Admission. Donations Welcome. \nhttps://www.culturelablic.org/#modern-ink

SUMMARY:MFTA Gallery: “All Night I Hear the Noise of Water Sobbing” by Mary Mattingly (Mondays – Fridays)
DESCRIPTION:Materials for the Arts (MFTA) presents “All Night I Hear the Noise of Water Sobbing\,” a solo exhibition featuring recent work by MFTA Artist-in-Residence Mary Mattingly. As MFTA’s Artist-in-Residence\, Mattingly has had unlimited access to MFTA’s warehouse of donated supplies\, where she has upcycled found objects to create the installations featured in her solo exhibition. Her life-long fascination for water permeates through “All Night I Hear the Noise of Water Sobbing\,” swallowing the MFTA Gallery whole and leaving its visitors to meditate on the element’s simultaneous capacity to corrode and restore our physical and internal worlds. \nColorful assemblages of objects —pitchers\, books\, pedestals\, ceiling medallions— varying in hues and height create a vibrant tableau. Fabric butterflies\, plastic lemons\, animal figurines made from metal and wood depict naturalistic elements and showcase the dichotomy between natural and synthetic. Unified by the water that courses through them\, these fixtures’ renewal rests within this constant stream that breathes new life into the objects. In turn\, this faint trickle invites gallery visitors to pause and take time\, to sit with water\, listen to it\, emote with it\, and consider all the wisdom life’s longest partner has to share. \nMattingly’s exhibition name\, “All Night I Hear the Noise of Water Sobbing\,” arose from the artist’s wanderings through the MFTA warehouse where she found a collection of poems written by Alejandra Pizarnik of the same title. \nRead the press release. \nAll Night I Hear the Noise of Water Sobbing” is on view through June 12\, 2026. \nThe MFTA Gallery is open Mondays through Fridays from 9:30am to 4:30pm\, excluding federal holidays. \nMaterials for the Arts\n33-00 Northern Blvd\, 3rd fl.\nLong Island City\, NY 11101 \nImage: Photo by Sefan Hagen.

SUMMARY:ROOTED: ARTISTS OF LIC at Culture Lab LIC
DESCRIPTION:Curated by Tess Howsam and Kenny Greenberg \n​​Exhibition on view April 2 – May 31\, 2026 during normal gallery hours: Thursday & Friday\, 5-9pm\, and Saturday & Sunday\, 2-9pm.\nFree Admission. \nLong Island City is one of the fastest-growing communities in New York City\, with a remarkable 78% growth since 2013. With the recent rezoning\, recognizing the neighborhood’s artistic roots has become a vital part of its story. As LIC continues to expand\, we cannot forget the artists who established its creative foundation and enabled this thriving community. Artists such as Alanna Heiss (MoMA PS1)\, Pat DiLillo (5Points)\, Mark di Suvero (Socrates Sculpture Park)\, and Isamu Noguchi (Noguchi Museum) are widely cited as artistic leaders who paved the way for the artists and institutions that followed. \nRooted: The Artists of Long Island City celebrates not only these revered leaders but also the many other artists who contributed to the community’s creative fabric. The exhibition traces LIC’s artistic lineage\, from late artists who helped define the neighborhood to contemporary artists continuing this legacy today. \nhttps://www.culturelablic.org/#rooted
