Gallery Trend : Art in Context

The French Concession is home to an increasing number of contemporary art galleries. Renovated residences provide an art deco setting for viewing art -- a uniquely Shanghai experience. The James Cohan Gallery is an excellent example of this. Below are images from their last exhibit, FOLKERT DE JONG : Thousand Years Business As Usual.

FENG FANGYU : May Rain
curated by Leslie Kuo

May Rain's well-crafted images highlight the theatre of love -- its torment, sweetness, pleading, and capriciousness. The exhibit is on view from March 20th through April 17th at Fellini Gallery.
