Now in its fourth edition, the West Bund Art & Design (10 – 12 November, 2017) continues to define itself as the premier destination and venue for contemporary art in Shanghai, and as the leading cultural gateway to top-tier contemporary art in China and throughout the Asian region.
Forty leading galleries from around the globe are invited to participate in the West Bund Art & Design this year; additionally, the newly launched TALENT sector will present works by emerging artists in a series of solo exhibitions or specially curated group shows. Also returning this year is ArtReview Asia Xiàn Chǎng (the Chinese word for "on the spot", “at the site”) showcasing cutting-edge works by both Asian and international artists that are featured in designated public spaces both inside and outside the fair. Many of the works included in these special exhibitions have been created especially for the venue or exhibited for the first time in the region.
Since its founding in 2014, the fair has continued to welcome and cultivate an exciting and diverse range of galleries, collaborating with museums and art institutions, as well as with design and innovative architectural studios. Presenting established and emerging artists from around the world, the West Bund Art & Design Fair exemplifies the thriving West Bund District that has rapidly become Shanghai’s distinguished cultural corridor and artistic enclave with its neighboring museums such as The Long Museum, the Yuz Museum, SCôP (Shanghai Center of Photography) as well as the highly anticipated Centre Pompidou Shanghai (West Bund), Tank Shanghai, and Start Museum, which will open in the next few years. Alongside the West Bund Art & Design Fair, the growing cluster of galleries and artists’ studios that have established themselves in the area augments the progressive and dynamic energy of the West Bund District and the city of Shanghai. The second week of November has now become a citywide event extending to other exciting venues.
