Rockbund Art Museum
Shanghai

The Rockbund Art Museum is the first contemporary art museum in China that is fully devoted to supporting contemporary art production and creativity. The museum was founded as an important part of the Rockbund Urban Renaissance project which aims to renovate heritage buildings and revitalize the cultural milieu for the north end of the Bund through arts, fashion, business and leisure programs. Thanks to substantial financial support to the production of original new artworks, the Rockbund Art Museum conceives and organizes art exhibitions, paying the utmost attention to professionalism and quality content in curatorial practice.

The Rockbund Art Museum is where artists and curators can develop art projects with specific and often strong demands. RAM co-conceives, co-creates and co-operates on monographs and collective exhibitions to balance international and Chinese art, embraces various creative practices to bridge various disciplines such as design, architecture, dance, and promotes major established artists as well as emerging art projects.

The Rockbund Art Museum strives to spread humanistic values and to promote art by offering all audiences the best conditions in encountering artworks, and by being dedicated to the research, exchange and promotion of contemporary art. The recently launched research and education platforms open the museum up for collaboration with universities, foundations and colleges, and co-organizes a wide range of activities in the form of lectures, seminars, screenings, performances, workshops and educational programs, which makes RAM an important force in knowledge production and public education in contemporary society.

The Rockbund Art Museum envisions itself as an open and vibrant museum that strives to provide support to contemporary artists and curators, to confront daring challenges for a creative contemporary art scene, and to generate lively programs of exhibitions and cultural events.

    Esther Schipper is pleased to announce Anicka Yi’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. Entitled A Shimmer Through The Quantum Foam, the exhibition features a series of unique animated pod sculptures that pulse and undulate, casting their flickering light across the surfaces of luminous algorithmically-generated paintings. Below this suspended constellation of bio-techno lifeforms, the soft glow of an aqueous ooze – indicative of life’s marine origins – sprawls in a shallow crater in a built up section across the gallery floor.
