shanghai art021 west bund art recap 1234762135

Shanghai's West Bund Art & Design fair and Art021 opened last week with unexpectedly strong sales, defying economic caution and regional competition. Many galleries reported brisk first-day sales, including Thaddaeus Ropac placing five works, Hauser & Wirth selling pieces by Avery Singer and Nicolas Party, and White Cube moving sculptures by Antony Gormley. However, major blue-chip galleries like Gagosian and Pace opted out entirely, while others like Almine Rech, White Cube, and David Zwirner scaled back their participation. The fairs took place against a backdrop of China's ongoing property slump and overlapping with Art Collaboration Kyoto, which siphoned international attention.
