Art fans! Good news. At least three museums are currently open. With amended hours, health-related restrictions in place, and reservation required prior to purchase. Power Station of Art, which is state-owned, requires you to make a reservation by finding them on WeChat under 上海当代艺术博物馆 (shanghai dangdai yishu bowuguan). Powerlong Museum, which hosted an art-viewing livestream during the break, is also open to people who reserve (scan the QR code at the bottom of this very whimsical article). Long Museum (West Bund), meanwhile, reopened yesterday with adjusted opening hours (last entry 3.30). You also need to reserve for that by long-pressing the QR half-way down this article. They've got exhibitions on Altered Carbon 2020 and paintings from Rui Xue. Most other museums we tried to get in touch with are still up in the air. teamLab Borderless and Tank Shanghai, for example, remain closed for the time being. Update: As Maio points out in the comments, teamLab has since announced they will be opening on March 27. Hooray!
