Asian Art Now
The Pacific Art League presents “Asian Art Now” for the month of February coinciding with the celebration of the Lunar New Year. This one-month exhibition opens February 1st and features works by local, internationally recognized artists May Shei, Yu Chun-Hui and Stella Zhang. This exhibition includes a solo show by May Shei in the Main Gallery and individual shows by Yu Chun-Hui and Stella Zhang in Studio One.
Jon Graves, CEO and Executive of Director of Pacific Art League said: "The population of Palo Alto is exceptionally diverse, reflecting the uniquely influential community that resides and works here. This 21st century melting pot is so vibrant and exciting with many cultures represented. As a visual arts institution, we want to increasingly recognize that evolving demographic and celebrate it. With this in mind, we are so excited to showcase the work of three high profile female Chinese artists who have also taught at Pacific Art League for many years.”
Complementing the exhibits in the Main Gallery and Studio One are student works in the Central Gallery. The curated works are a selection of pieces created by May Shei, Stella Zhang and Yu Chun-Hui’s Pacific Art League students. Exhibiting students include: Linda Tapscott, Rachel Tirosh, Gerri Russell, Lauren Herzog Schwartz, Janie Farn, Karen DalColletto, Annette Wagner, Claire Tu, Sachiyo Yamasaki, Claire Haratana, Kimberley Wong, Karen Tseng, Diana Chien, Chai Lo Lai, Lin-Ching Peng, Yingssu Tsai, Ling Lin So and Jerome Chin.
