Our last Art Focus event before we adjourn for the summer will take place at the Long Museum West Bund, another new private museum that has erupted onto the Shanghai cityscape. Julie Chun (MA, Art History) will lead us through the space and highlight the important Chinese contemporary works in the permanent collection as well as discuss the polemics that are inherent in establishing any institutional canon. She has covered both Long Museums (in Pudong and West Bund) for the summer issue of Yishu Journal of Contemporary Chinese Art.
