About
Dieses Museum befindet sich im ehemaligen China-Pavillon der Expo 2010 und ist eines der größten Kunstmuseen Asiens. Es zeigt zeitgenössische chinesische Kunst und wechselnde Ausstellungen.
The China Art Museum sits in Shanghai's Pudong New Area, at 161 Shangnan Road, in the building that once served as the China Pavilion during Expo 2010. Its large halls now hold contemporary Chinese art and a rotating programme of exhibitions, so a visit can look quite different from one season to the next.
What to expect
- Contemporary Chinese art forms the core of the collection and the displays.
- Rotating exhibitions mean the galleries change over time, so it is worth checking what is on before you travel.
- The building itself is a draw, as it was the China Pavilion at the Expo, and its scale suits a long, unhurried look around.
Planning your visit
The museum is known in Chinese as 中华艺术宫, and you may also see it listed as the Former China Pavilion, so use either name when searching or asking for directions. Pudong is a district of wide avenues and modern architecture, so you can combine a museum visit with time spent exploring the surrounding area.
