Long 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.
Rooted: 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.
