About Flux IV
Flux IV is a project space by Flux Factory, presenting an annual season of free, multidisciplinary exhibitions and public programs. Flux IV is located at 56-21 2nd Street, Long Island City, NY on the Hunter’s Point South waterfront, while the artist-in-residency is headquartered at 39-31 29th Street, Long Island City, NY. Flux Factory purchased both properties in November 2021, marking the organization’s first time owning its space since its founding in 1994. Designed by architects Interval Projects, Flux IV is the fourth building Flux Factory has operated. After a handful of pilot programs, Flux IV launched its first official public season in 2025.
Flux IV’s public season is developed through open calls, curatorial pitches from Flux’s collective of artists-in-residence and alumni, and partnerships with residency institutions. At its core are solo and group exhibitions drawn from a network of over 500 alumni and current residents. Each month, Flux IV also serves as a gathering space for pop-up projects, artistic research, temporary workspace, discursive programs, learnshops, screenings, concerts, and yet-to-be-realized experimental formats by and for artists. The program prioritizes projects that are mission-aligned and culturally responsive, supporting emerging artists of all ages through resource- and skill-sharing, peer education, collectivity, and collaboration.
Projects that study, grow roots, and help deepen relationships in Hunter’s Point and the Newtown Creek watershed, where Flux IV is situated, are encouraged. Beyond its public season, Flux IV is also available to rent for professional and personal gatherings, as scheduling allows.
