Over the decade the gallery tirelessly revolutionizes the ways in which art is perceived and presented, offering one of the most comprehensive resource platforms for the local arts community in China.
With the prosperity of cultural consumption demand, galleries are expanding their territory and gradually become more diversified, so comprehensive experience upgrading becomes a necessity.
Friendly cooperation has been established through the first phase of revolutionary renovation in 2016 that lead by Studi HVN, in 2019 the second phase 1500 square meters renovation continues to be designed and executed by StudioHVN.
