About

Since opening in 2005, artlesnyc studios has been a progressive artistic force on the Lower East Side underground scene. From contemporary art installations to after-school student projects, promoting events combining performance, art, fashion, and design. artlesnyc has striven to be a shining beacon representing the eternal independent artistic spirit of this neighborhood. Now, after a five-year span featuring over 30 extravagant, large-scale multimedia shows, we are bidding farewell to our homestead on Rivington Street due to the gentrification and uncontrollable homogenization of our beloved neighborhood of the Lower East Side. In partnership with Culture Fix on Clinton Street, we have decided to produce a retrospective and documentary showing of the most captivating work presented by resident artists and contributors through studios' existence.
