Yishu is pleased to announce its continued participation in the 41st edition of Art Basel, which opens from June 16-20, 2010.
THE BOOK LAUNCH
In effort to provide timely information about the Chinese art scene, Yishu will distribute at the fair our annual supplement—Yishu Contemporary Chinese Art Guide. As in previous editions, we have collaborated with RedBox Studio in Beijing to produce our pocket-sized supplement. This year we have collected insights from writers in Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong, to provide on the ground reports of the different local art scenes in China. Our special focus sections voice the opinions of critics and curators on the state of the art scene in Hong Kong, and provide a perspective on the philosophical intent behind artistic production by the Chinese artist, Zhong Biao.
We sincerely hope you enjoy this supplement to Yishu: Journal of Contemporary Chinese Art and we are delighted to share our enthusiasm for contemporary Chinese art with you.
YISHU ARCHIVE LAUNCH
At the fair, we are also going to launch www.yishu-online.com as our virtual platform for providing immediate access to an authoritative forum for discussion on contemporary Chinese art.
Please come to say hello at Halle 2.0 / Stand Z17. See you there!
