"Queens International 4" addresses concepts of internationalism, multiculturalism, and migration from a local standpoint. These global issues provide an impulse for artists to transform rhetoric and theory into earnest gestures that refract social situations through aesthetic means.

In 2002, the Queens Museum of Art inaugurated "Queens International" a biennial exhibition of artists from around the world who live and/or work in Queens. "Queens International" addresses concepts of internationalism, multiculturalism, and migration from a local, homespun standpoint. These global issues provide an impulse for artists to transform debate, rhetoric, and theories into earnest forms and gestures that refract and morph this ever-changing phenomenon.

"Queens International 4", like its predecessors, pays special attention to the borough's emerging artists, and presents viewers with a group of artists who have found alternative methods to work inside and outside of their studios, identities, cultures, and nationalities.
