Uncompleted Symphony: In Search For 3 2 1!

Abstract

In the ongoing and everlasting place-making process, art museums in Shanghai coexist with the most complex urban structures, marked by unequal socioeconomic distribution and living conditions. In Uncompleted Symphony: In Search For 3 2 1 ! , I have assembled six photos that were taken in the Shanghai Duolun Museum of Modern Art, four photos of its surroundings, and a symbolic photo of tree. Shanghai Duolun Museum of Modern Art is Shanghai’s first state-owned museum dedicated solely to contemporary art. The museum is almost enclosed by construction sites and commercial shopping streets.
