On the eve of Chinese artist Yang Fudong’s solo exhibition at ACMI, MPavilion presents a prelude discussion about his stylised usage of architectural motifs. The discussion, moderated by MPavilion senior curator Natalie King, will also investigate the proliferation and design agendas of new museums in China. Guest speakers include Li Ning (curator of the Academic & Research Department at the Shanghai Art Museum) and Claire Roberts (historian of Chinese art and senior lecturer of Art History at the University of Adelaide), both of whom will present as part of ACMI’s China Up Close Symposium on 3 December.
