New York City’s nine predominantly Chinese neighborhoods are home to the largest ethnic Chinese population outside of Asia. Our exhibition, Interior Lives: Contemporary Photographs of Chinese New Yorkers, features the work of three photographers: Thomas Holton, Annie Ling, and An Rong Xu. Inspired by the show, join us for a series of programs that consider Chinese-American identity and the complex reality of immigrant life in New York City. 

Our Partners

Interior Lives: Contemporary Photographs of Chinese New Yorkers is organized by the Museum of the City of New York in conjunction with the Museum of Chinese in America (MOCA) exhibition Interior Lives: Photographs of Chinese Americans in the 1980s by Bud Glick.
