Wu Chi-Tsung work “Still Life 006 – Chrysanthemum” will be displayed on Tank Shanghai. Duration: 2018 November 8-11 Venue: Tank Shanghai, No.2555 Longteng Ave. Participated artists: Wu Chi-tsung, Zeitguised, Eponine Momenceau, Tomás Saraceno, Frederik Heyman Curator: Davide Quadrio Arthub teamed up with NOWNESS to present a new group show called “naturalunnatural” as part of “experiments” opening on 8th November in Tank Art Project Space Shanghai. “界” refers to boundaries as well as interfaces.

In this exhibition, Ryoji Ikeda, a leading figure in Japanese electronic music and visual arts, will be exhibiting at Tank No.1 of the TANK SHANGHAI. Tank No. 2 will be hosted by Laure Prouvost, an artist who will represent France at the Venice Biennale in 2019. A group exhibition of “ Naturalunnatural – How will be remembered in the future?”, curated by Davide Quadrio of Arthub, will also be presented. In addition, in the Tank No. 3, artist Lu Sisi will perform a special piece for the opening party. The event is not only the first public exhibition of TANK SHANGHAI, but is also a special project of the Shanghai Biennale 2019.
