In addition, a sculpture by renowned British artist Michael Dean will be on view in Beijing for the first time.
The exhibition title ’White Flash’ comes from a technical norm of the same name used in the process of film editing, referring to the Fade to White transition that combines different scenes. Time is fleeting, and it has been 10 years since 2008, when ShanghART Beijing was established. At this moment, we seem to be taking a train just coming out of the time tunnel and now entering a wash of white, which is representative of a new beginning as well as an unknown spacetime. No matter what happens next, we will always keep our original intention in mind.




ShanghART gallery was initiated in 1996 in Shanghai. It has since grown to become one of China’s most influential art institutions and a vital resource to the development of contemporary art in China with two spaces in 50 Moganshan Road (Main Space and H-Space), a public warehouse space in West of Shanghai (ShanghART Taopu), and a gallery space in Beijing and representing over 40 artists.
Being recognized for its importance ShanghART became the initial gallery from China participating in major international art fairs like Art Basel and Fiac, Paris. ShanghART gallery also enjoys the great respect of being among the 75 most influencial galleries selected in Thames & Hudson’s publication ‘International Art Galleries: Post-war to Post-millennium.’
