Asian-American artists shine at San Francisco Art Fair amid ongoing anti-immigrant rhetoric
The San Francisco Art Fair featured Asian-American artists, including Leland Wong and Liu Tianlian, in a group exhibition focused on the local Chinatown. The fair's director, Kelly Freeman, said the event celebrated the strength of the immigrant population in the city.
The San Francisco Art Fair took place at the Fort Mason Centre's Festival Pavilion in April. The event featured a strong engagement with Asian and Asian-American identity, with a curated group exhibition and a pop-up design store showcasing over 70 Asian diaspora artists and brands. Fair director Kelly Freeman said the event celebrated the strength of the immigrant population in the city. The exhibition was a collaboration with the Chinese Culture Centre of San Francisco and Edge on the Square. In a city where 35% of the population identifies as Asian, the fair provided a space for Asian-American and Pacific Islander voices to be central. The event highlighted the unity and strength of the immigrant community.
