The sleepless theatre
Through a curatorial approach, Jiang Jiehong invites contemporary artists to focus on a 100-year-old building in Shanghai, now the Wu Changshuo Art Museum (WAM), which survived the turbulence of wars, political movements of the past century and the dramatic urban development in post-Mao China. Situated amongst the forest of the modernized skyscrapers in Shanghai’s CBD Lujiazui, this heritage house stays in its traditional style, contributing to a…
The flow interrupted
This preface sets a brief background to introduce transcultural dialogues, or the flow, between Chinese contemporary art and the international world. This flow has been interrupted significantly by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, whilst new strategies and art diplomacies are to be developed
Life in-between Screens

Biennials, triennials in China
As one of the earliest ‘exhibitions’, the first Paris Salon was held in the Palais-Royal in 1667, and by 1699, the growth of such public events prompted a move to the Grand Galerie of the Louvre. Salons thus became the public space for art in the modern sense. Soon after, in the eighteenth century, art exhibitions proliferated throughout Europe and in Britain, most notably, there has been the annual summer show of London’s Royal Academy which was…
Urban transformations and contemporary art in China
In the recent decades, China has experienced an ‘urban revolution’ (e.g. Wu 2007; Campanella 2008), whose scale and speed are unprecedented in human history for both the increase of construction projects and urban population. Existing scholarship on the topic explores the tangible and quantifiable aspects of the urban transformation, such as policy changes, physical development and expansion of cities including the construction boom, rural-urban …

Burden or Legacy
The Cultural Revolution in China (1966–1976) has often been regarded as a period of disruptive turbulence and frenzied savagery. Its legacy to artistic growth and expression amounts to nothing except a burden of haunting traumas. Or does it amount to more than that? The seven authors in this anthology of essays and images argue that it does. Focusing on the impact of the Cultural Revolution on the development of contemporary art in China, they pr…
