EXHIBITION CONCEPT WITH ZHANG FANGBAI (CHN) AND CE JIAN (GER/CHN)
1.-3. September 2017
In response to the leading position of China in the international art market, ARTGATE is conceptualising an exhibition project with the artists Ce Jian (GER/CHN) and Zhang Fangbai (CHN) with accompanying company events in the art nouveau villa "House Vionville". At the intersection of the new German-Chinese silk road and in the heart of the city of Duesseldorf, the presentation juxtaposes two generations of internationally recognised Chinese artists. Through this, the exhibition also emphasises the increasing cultural relevance of China for North Rhine-Westphalia.

Thanks to the participation of numerous generous sponsors, all revenue from the artworks sold at the auction will, to 100%, go towards a project of the Welthungerhilfe in the region Anosy in the south of Madagascar and will thus serve to reinforce the Welthungerhilfe's goal to provide a livelihood for Madagascan smallholders.
