>> Meet Lu Xun, Collector and Founder of Sifang Art Museum @ASIA NOW 2019 - Chat Room

The Sifang Art Museum, inaugurated in November 2013, in Nanjing, China, is an non-profit private art institution committed to supporting artists and their creative initiatives. During the 5th ASIA NOW, Sifang is pleased to present its 2018 residency program “HUGE HUGE”, where a group of more than twenty artists lived collectively for half a year and gradually built up an entire utopia of paintings, photos, sculptures, videos, performances, texts and music amongst the natural landscape and the unique built environment of the Steven Holl-designed art museum.
