Arrtnet news
The art world descended on Shanghai this week as the opening of two major art fairs coincided with the launch of the Shanghai Biennial. The convergence of big events makes the city a key stop on the global art circuit for Asian galleries and international mega-galleries alike—despite fears haunting the Chinese economy that include slowing growth, a weakening currency, a real estate bubble, high levels of debt, and a possible trade war with the US.

The fifth edition of Shanghai’s West Bund Art & Design fair opened to the public on November 8. Gray drizzle, the coinciding VIP preview of concurrent fair Art021, and the excesses of preceding nights’ art week parties brought a sluggish start. It was only in the afternoon that the pace picked up as visitors streamed in to the sprawling West Bund Art Center. In addition to Hall A, this year’s fair extended to the newly constructed, adjacent Hall N, which was split into three smaller sections, bringing the event’s total floor space to more than 20,000 square meters—sufficient room for the booths of the 110 galleries from China and abroad.

In Shanghai, the historic Bund grabs much of the spotlight — the stretch of former banks and trading houses along the Huangpu River, built a century ago in a kaleidoscope of architectural styles, is a monument to the grandeur of another era. It can also be downright suffocating on weekends, with tourists jostling for selfie positions.
