Louis Stern Fine Arts Exhibition Traces Mimi Chen Ting's Artistic Evolution

Louis Stern Fine Arts is hosting an exhibition titled 'Mimi Chen Ting: Ties Unbound' that explores the artistic development of Chinese American painter Mimi Chen Ting (1946-2022). The show follows her transition from figurative works with autobiographical elements to abstract compositions. Throughout her career, Ting examined themes of immigration, gender, and creativity. Her paintings often feature intertwined cord-like forms that represent connections, constraints, and identity. The exhibition highlights how her personal history, including her relationship with her grandmother, influenced her visual language.
