Contractual art
A group of contemporary artists are presenting a site-specific art event-exhibition at a construction site near Hangzhou's West Lake. They invited real workers to activate their creativity, and bring independent ideas and visual vim to the works. Participants locally obtained materials. Everything that happens during the process will become part of the event. Shanghai's Shanghart Gallery helped organize the show.
July 24-Aug 31. Mirica Village, 134 Qianlong Road, Yangmeiling Village, Xihu Lake Scenic Zone, Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. 021-6359-3923.
Heaven and earth
Kan Tai-keung is considered the father of Hong Kong design and has been practicing his profession since 1967, with Bank of China and Wing Wah logos as some of his most recognizable creations. The celebrated designer and artist will showcase his work in his solo show Infinite Quest. In this exhibition, he explores the Chinese philosophical concept of Tao, the creator of heaven and earth, and the driving force behind life. The exhibition will show commercial and artistic projects, including posters, books and stamps.
