The Immigrant Artist Biennial (TIAB) presents work by immigrant artists. The 2026 edition “Identity Card” will take place in October - November 2026 in NYC at Brooklyn Art Haus, Nguyen Wahed, Essex Kitchen co-presented by Artists Alliance Inc, Residency Unlimited, BRIC and Shiva Gallery at John Jay College.
The first biennial Here, Together! took place in NYC in 2020, across several venues, including Brooklyn Museum, EFA Project Space, Greenwood Cemetery and virtually, presenting over 65 artists. The second edition of TIAB took place in 2023/24, presenting 48 artists from over 35 countries across seven venues, including Brooklyn Museum, Artists Alliance, NARS Foundation, EFA Project Space, Accent Sisters and more.
Established in 2019 by Ukrainian born, NYC based artist and educator Katya Grokhovsky. The Immigrant Artist Biennial (TIAB) is nomadic, shaping its identity as it roams, conceptually establishing its own territory. TIAB presents immigrant artists in numerous ways and through various formats, seeking to facilitate a platform of support for projects by often overlooked and silenced voices. The project draws a diverse audience nationally and internationally, with a strong community in New York. The biennial is funded through its host partners, grants, sponsorships, donations, fundraisers, crowdfunding and its Patron Circle.
