The most ambitious exhibition of contemporary Chinese art to travel beyond China opens to the public Friday, October 21 at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery and the University at Buffalo (UB) Art Galleries after its debut in Beijing this summer at the Millennium Art Museum. The Wall: Reshaping Contemporary Chinese Art is the first collaboration between U.S. art museums and a significant Chinese art museum to focus on contemporary Chinese art. Because of its size and scope, The Wall is installed at three venues: the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, the UB Art Gallery in the Center for the Arts on UB's North Campus in Amherst, and the UB Anderson Gallery on Martha Jackson Place in Buffalo. The exhibition will remain on view through Jan. 29, 2006.
