We are so excited for the opening of Tseng Kwong Chi: Performing for the Camera at NYU’s Grey Art Gallery. Tseng Kwong Chi was an amazing photographer and great friend of Keith Haring.  Tseng extensively documented the vibrant downtown art scene of 1980’s New York City, and also created a fascinating and complex body of performative self-portraits addressing themes of social and political identity.  Visit the exhibition website for more information, and be sure to see the show!

If you can’t see the show in New York, the exhibition is traveling to additional venues, see the list here.
