Resident Alien: Art by Foreign-born Artists

With all the talk of immigration in the news lately, Greene County Council on the Arts is highlighting some of the many foreign-born artists who moved to the Hudson Valley. Artists were asked to submit work that speaks to their original homeland, the journey to their new homeland, thoughts about living in the US, the current immigration conversation, or simply expresses something about themselves. The fourteen selected artists present a collection of works ranging from painting, sculpture, prints, poetry, and installation that collectively provide fascinating insight into how artists integrate their past with their present.
