Second edition of Gallery Weekend Beijing on for longer

Another new section at this year's Gallery Weekend Beijing is the public art project in which several installations of prominent artists have been placed outdoors in the 798 art area.

Wang says it is to open the vision of art to ordinary visitors and to arouse their interest to enter a gallery.

"Art is always about triggering one's curiosity and overturn stereotypes. It is better that when people see these works, they have questions about the art and the artists, and that may be the start for someone to develop into a future patron of Chinese contemporary art."
