No Longer Empty Curatorial Lab and York College Fine Arts Gallery are
pleased to present the inaugural Southeast Queens Biennial: A Locus of
Moving Points.
In its inaugural year, the Southeast Queens Biennial identifies movement as an organizing principle for understanding Southeast Queens as a gateway for travel and a source of cultural production and exchange deeply rooted in its immigrant communities.
This concept finds its roots in the writing of bell hooks, a visionary feminist activist and author, who speaks to the transformative potential of shifting one’s focus to consider the margin and center not as disparate parts, but as making up a whole body.
