Group Exhibition AUCKLAND ART GALLERY TOI O TAMAKI, Auckland, New Zealand
Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki presents Forever Tomorrow: Chinese Art Now 永远的明天：中国艺术进行时, a major survey of Chinese contemporary art. From daring artistic breakthroughs to today’s digitally native creators, Forever Tomorrow showcases how Chinese artists have grappled with China’s breathtaking transformation since the late 1970’s, producing work that remains visionary and influential today. Opening 2 May, the exhibition features 67 works by 42 artists and spans performance, photography, sculpture, installation, moving image and new media. Dr Zara Stanhope, Tātaki Auckland Unlimited Director of Auckland Art Gallery, says, “Forever Tomorrow brings to Tāmaki Makaurau a wide range of works that reveal how Chinese artists reflected the seismic shifts that have recently taken place in China and in its relationships with the world. This exhibition resonates in Aotearoa and in Tāmaki Makaurau as we grow in cultural diversity and understanding, and in the dynamic cultural experiences it offers that touch us all.” The exhibition has been curated by Hutch Wilco of Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, with support from Feng Boyi. Feng is a prominent curator and critic who previously served as director of the He Xiangning Art Museum and Suzhou Jinji Lake Art Museum. He is currently a researcher at the Institute of Art Sociology at the Sichuan Fine Arts institute based in China.
