Through vibrant colors, flowing lines, and layered forms, Chen explores love, desire, sorrow, and memory\u2014bringing timeless myths into a fresh, contemporary world.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than painting gods and heroes, Chen invites us to experience mythology through emotion, imagination, and personal memories. His work blends the rich textures of Western oil painting with the open, contemplative space of traditional Eastern ink painting.<\/p>\n<p>Curated by <strong>Tzu-Ying Naomi Chan<\/strong>, this exhibition celebrates Chen\u2019s ongoing artistic journey between Taiwan and New York.<\/p>\n<p>Join us for an evening of art, music, and inspiration. Enjoy the paintings, connect with fellow art lovers, and experience how ancient stories can take on new life through abstract art.<\/p>\n<p><strong>EVENT DETAILS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> Friday, October 23, 2026<br \/>\n<strong>Opening Reception:<\/strong> 6:00\u20138:00 PM<br \/>\n<strong>Live Music:<\/strong> 8:00 PM<br \/>\n<strong>Location:<\/strong> Gallery 77<br \/>\n35-57 77th St, Jackson Heights, NY 11372<\/p>\n<p><strong>Exhibition Dates:<\/strong> October 23, 2026 \u2013 January 13, 2027<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Artist<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Born in Chiayi, Taiwan, Paul Chen brings together his backgrounds in architecture and art to explore the relationship between form, color, and space.
