Overview

The Art Museum of Pudong (MAP) is located in the core area of Shanghai's Lujiazui riverfront, starting construction on September 26, 2017, and officially opening to the public in July 2021.

The MAP is invested, built, and operated by the Lujiazui Group and designed by Jean Nouvel (AJN), with international art exhibition and exchange as the main focus and domestic art exhibition as well, highlighting the four major functions of exhibition, aesthetic education, cultural creation and international exchange, dedicated to building a new landmark of international cultural venues and an important platform for international art exchange in Shanghai.

Venues

The material used in the MAP, Shandong white marble, outlines the white territory, whether it is the exterior walls, rooftops, bridges, gardens, or interior floors and walls, this stone is used, but through different polishing methods to build a different texture.

When entering the interior of the museum, "suprematism" is always present. The white walls are like paper, creating pure geometric forms, black straight lines, diagonal lines, and cross lines.

MAP is a 39,724-square-meter building with four floors above ground and two underground, including 13 exhibition halls of various sizes. In addition to the two "mirror halls" facing the Bund, the "X Gallery", which runs 30 meters across the four floors, is also a feature.

Exhibitions & Events

The new exhibition Xu Bing: Gravitational Arena opened officially on August 12th, 2022 in the Exhibition Hall X of Museum of Art Pudong (MAP). This exhibition was produced by the Lujiazui Group and organized by MAP. Composed of 1,600 metal Square Word Calligraphy characters, with a visual depth of more than 50 meters, this giant installation was tailored by artist Xu Bing for the Exhibition Hall X at MAP, a unique art space across the globe. It is another astonishing piece of commissioned work exhibited at the Museum since its opening.

The exhibition is located at exhibition halls 4A and 4B of MAP, and it is divided into thirteen sub-units, altogether presenting a pyrotechnic display which focuses on the greatest Italian designs created over the last seventy years. The exhibition develops on a path marked by a succession of thematic modules, each defined by a cluster of objects that interpret and explicate the subject. They are timeless and without borders, having origins in iconic presences and moving toward derivations and evolutions. No module exhausts its own theme but instead suggests its boundaries and ingredients.

On September 30, 2022, Museum of Art Pudong (MAP) opens its new exhibition The Dynamic Eye: Op and Kinetic Art from the Tate Collection on the 2nd floor. The exhibition brings together nearly 120 artworks, spanning various media like painting, relief, screenprint, sculpture, installation and video, revisiting Op and Kinetic Art from a global perspective. The exhibition is co-organized by MAP and Tate, and produced by Lujiazui (Group) Co., Ltd.

The exhibition is co-organised by the Pudong Art Museum and THE NATIONAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM OF NAPLES. As part of the "2022 Sino-Italian Year of Culture and Tourism" series of events, the exhibition "The Realm of Beauty" is supported by the Italian Consulate General in Shanghai, the Cultural Section of the Italian Consulate General in Shanghai, MondoMostre, and the Experimental Image Centre. The exhibition is supported by the Consulate General of Italy in Shanghai, the Cultural Office of the Consulate General of Italy in Shanghai, MondoMostre and the Experimental Image Centre.
