Permanent Migrants is the first exhibition to be held at Inheritance – Shenzhen 传承:深圳, a project space in urban Shenzhen.
Retrospective in nature, the exhibition presents artworks by a number prominent artists in China and around the world that are specific to the city of Shenzhen. It is just one attempt at proposing a contemporary art history of the very young city. The artists - many current or former residents - have spent considerable time engaging with the anomalous specificities of Shenzhen.
This exhibition provides a context of recent and older artworks and acts as a springboard from which INH-SZ will commission new artworks and programming.
