About

The Shanghai Art Museum is a space where architecture and exhibition connect as a single visual narrative, following the flow of contemporary Chinese art. Stepping inside, the quiet power held by this building, once a racecourse, slowly wraps around you. The light flowing through each gallery seeps between the old brick walls and glass windows, emphasizing the harmony between contemporary artworks and classical architecture. In particular, a large painting filling one entire wall seems to draw visitors right into it.
