Wallace Chan's Monumental Titanium Sculptures Debut in Shanghai
Wallace Chan has just launched his most ambitious sculpture project, titled "Vessels of Other Worlds," at the Long Museum (West Bund) in Shanghai. Curated by James Putnam, this exhibition features a striking collection of large titanium sculptures that explore ideas of transformation, memory, and spirituality. It was first introduced in Venice earlier this year and is part of a unique collaboration between the Long Museum and the Chapel of Santa Maria della Pietà in Venice. The Shanghai show opened on July 18 and will run until October 25. Marking Chan's 70th birthday, this exhibition reflects a key moment in his artistic evolution, merging both jewelry and sculpture. Visitors can enjoy works that play with light, materials, and space.
