July 25 - September 5, 2024

Livingroom Rhapsody



Allen Street Gallery is pleased to announce, “The Living Room Rhapsody,” running from July 25 to September 5, 2024. Curated by Annie Chen Ziyao, this exhibition reimagines the traditional art space as a dynamic living environment, blending the boundaries between art and daily life.


By showcasing functional art and design objects, the exhibition reflects the evolving dialogue within our contemporary art scene, where the interplay between form and function challenges conventional perceptions of art’s role in our daily lives. Each piece in the exhibition demonstrates how art can infuse the mundane with meaning, prompting a re-evaluation of the objects that surround us and their potential to enrich our daily experiences.
