Exhibition Description
Curated by Kitty Scott, with co-curators Daisy Desrosiers and Xue Tan, the 15th Shanghai Biennale transforms the Power Station of Art into a garden-like landscape where visitors are encouraged to wander, listen, and discover connections across art, nature, science, and culture. Featuring over 30 newly commissioned works, the Biennale proposes contemporary art as a space for exploring new forms of perception and coexistence amid ecological change and global uncertainty. The exhibition also extends throughout Shanghai through City Projects, performances, workshops, lectures, and public programs.
