Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York is pleased to present Night Scenes, a group exhibition curated by Sun You and Dominic Terlizzi. Featuring works by Richard Bosman, Ethan Greenbaum, Matt Jones, Christina Yuna Ko, Larysa Myers, Sarah Palmer, Alan Reid, Vanessa Gully Santiago, Ginevra Shay, Yuri Yuan and Monsieur Zohore.

During Covid lockdowns, I was taking a lot of walks at night. I became entranced with the city after dark—illuminated by artificial light and the melancholy, sexy energy of the nocturnal. I feel like now is a good time for a show featuring artists who work with themes of landscape, night, darkness and illumination.
