Exhibitions
Exhibitions can offer rare glimpses of both an aesthetic and a social milieu. They tell us not only about the scope of works on the show but who showed with whom, the graphic style of the day and styles of writing. Thus, we believe exhibitions are excellent ways to advertise Swiss art-science culture and product, especially in Shanghai, where quality art institutions reside. Below are various recent exhibitions coordinated and supported by Swissnex in China.
