Introduction:
This catalogue is published in conjunction with the exhibition 'Open Sky - Contemporary Art Exhibition' held at Duolun Museum of Modern Art in Shanghai, featuring oil paintings, videos and installations by 36 distinguished Chinese contemporary artists.
`Different from the other art museums in town, we focus on modern art,' says Shen Qibin, executive director of the museum. 'We named the show `Open Sky' in order to free our minds and lift ourselves up into the sky.'
Colour plates of works exhibited accompanied with brief description can be found alongside the artist's biography. Address of the director, introduction written by the curator as well as detailed biography of the curator are included.
