During the entire month of February, No Man’s Art Gallery is bringing Chinese contemporary art to the Netherlands. Our gallery concept is unique: every couple of months we move to a new country, find local young talented artists in that country and take their art to the next destination.
“With a pop-up gallery organised in a new city every few months, a discount for art buyers under 26 and adventurous events including Art In The Dark, NMAG is steadily pushing boundaries in the art world to make room for new and undiscovered talent.” The Copenhagen Post
While part of the curatorial team is currently in Cape Town working towards the next pop-up gallery scheduled for march, the Amsterdam office of the gallery is showing the five artists that the gallery found in Shanghai during the pop-up gallery in May 2013. NMAG presents SHANGHAI DANGDAI exhibits the work of Aixia Li, Caucasso Lee Jun, Hu Xing Yi, Nini Sum and Zhang Jifeng.
