Exhibition presented as part of the project
Material Matters: Sheila Hicks and Shi Hui
🗓️On view through 2 August 2026
📍West Bund Museum, Shanghai, China
This exhibition brings together two major figures in contemporary art for whom material matters. Sheila Hicks (b. 1934, American, lives in Paris) has been active on the international art scene since the early 1960s, working primarily with fiber, color, and structures. Shi Hui (b. 1955, Chinese, lives in Hangzhou) has developed her own language since the 1980s, exploring paper pulp, pure white, and poetic spatial forms. Both are pushing the traditions of art making through experimentation using humble materials in innovative modes.
Curated by Clément Dirié, Liu Xiao and Chen Yangyi
