Founded in Shanghai in 2014, the fair has evolved over thirteen years from a single-venue event into a sprawling multi-venue cultural landscape stretching five kilometers along the Huangpu River. Gathering hundreds of leading galleries and institutions from across the globe, the fair has built a dynamic international platform showcasing diverse artistic expressions, bridging Eastern and Western perspectives, and connecting generations. Each November, West Bund Art & Design establishes Shanghai as an unmissable destination on the global art calendar.
