group | The Rise of Modernity: The First Generation of Chinese Architects from the University of Pennsylvania

Power Station of Art is honored to host The Rise of Modernity: The First Generation of Chinese Architects from the University of Pennsylvania, in conjunction with School of Architecture, Southeast University and Architectural Society of Shanghai. It is the first presentation of historical archives, which systematically aim at the rise and development of modern Chinese architecture by a contemporary art institution in China. By focusing on each specific case study, the exhibition revisits historical prosperities of Shanghai as a modern metropolis. PSA attempts to vehicle “phantoms” of that historical moment thus offers a closer comparison with current landscape of China’s architecture. Professor Tong Ming serves as the chief curator of this exhibition which is a further developed from Foundation: The First Chinese Architects Graduated from University of Pennsylvania, previously held at the Jiangsu Art Museum in 2017.
