Elmgreen and Dragset2013

'The Well Fair' is the eponymous Chinese and English catalogue accompanying Elmgreen & Dragset?s first exhibition in China and largest in Asia to date. The duo transforms UCCA?s Great Hall into a fictional art fair by dividing the space into rectangular booths featuring a selection of over 80 works from the past twenty years. The publication completes the exhibition as an ersatz art fair catalogue. A collection of essays by scholars and fair directors addresses the cultural, sociological, psychological, and historical forces that have contributed to the development of art fairs, as well as their potential for the future. 0Exhibition: Ullens Center for Contemporary Art, Beijing, China (24.01. - 17.04.2016).
