We are pleased to announce "FILTER THE PUBLIC" as the large-scale art project to commemorate the SWFC 5th Anniversary.
As one of the most iconic landmarks in Shanghai, the prominence of SWFC does not only dwell within its horizontal space but yet include its unique design and height of 492 meters. The area of the exhibition will not only cover the public space, both indoor and outdoor, but also include SWFC tower itself as an art museum within its beauty of being an art piece.
Through art, people can realize more about things around themselves. Public art is a friendly approach which allows the space to have conversation with people.
Artists on behalf of Shanghai, leading curators, galleries will create their art shows under the same inspiration of Shanghai and Lujiazui area. To celebrate our anniversary, please welcome the new challenge of possibilities and the role of art in public space. SWFC is opening up the new dimension of art.

Titled Infinity, the work appears in the midst of the dense social and economic tissue that makes up the heart of Shanghai City. LED Light streams rapidly spread, intersect, expand and evolve above the moving stage. The endless changes born out of crosses, together with the sense of speed created by acceleration of switches on color and flashing frequency, compose an abstract inverted image of the city.
