2008 Chinese Contemporary Art Awards Exhibition
The Chinese Contemporary Art Awards, announced in January of 2008, culminate with an exhibition in Shanghai at the Bund 18 Creative Center. On show is an exhibition of the winners: Liu Wei, Tseng Yu-Chin, and Ai Weiwei.
The Chinese Contemporary Art Awards were founded by Uli Sigg in 1997 as a nonprofit entity to enhance the position of Chinese contemporary art both domestically and internationally. With the growth of the art market in the ensuing decade, the purpose of the awards has shifted to emphasize a critical position on the conversation over what constitutes meaningful art in current Chinese production.
