Opening Reception for Rising Dragon: Contemporary Chinese Photography

The opening reception for Rising Dragon: Contemporary Chinese Photography, an exhibition honoring the Chinese Year of the Dragon, was held at the Katonah Museum of Art. The exhibition displays work created by artists in China since 2000, the last Year of the Dragon. Many of the 80 works in Rising Dragon, curated by Miles Barth, have never been seen in the United States.
“Rising Dragon is a portal to experience Chinese photography over the past 10 years, and offers a range of public programs focusing on the broader Chinese culture,” said Neil Watson, executive director of the Katonah Museum of Art. “The blending of the exhibition with programs such as Chinese Culture Family Day create a rich tapestry for our visitors to experience.”
