DISCOVERIES 2010: RE-VALUE An Exhibition and Conference
ShContemporary, September 9-12, 2010
www.shcontemporary.info
DISCOVERIES is a thematic exhibition and conference at ShContemporary.
Last year, DISCOVERIES09’s theme asked an important question, “What
is contemporary art?” The exhibition responded with works by Anri
Sala, Joseph Kosuth, Fiona Tan, Heman Chong, MadeIn, Feng Mengbo and
many others. The conference consisted of formal lectures by ten
critics, artists, and curators, including Boris Groys, Martha Rosler,
Hans Ulrich Obrist, and Raqs Media Collective. The proceedings have
recently been published by Sternberg Press, titled “e-flux journal:
What is Contemporary Art?”
This year, DISCOVERIES2010 hones its sights on the market. Since the
art market has become larger in recent times than ever before, it
wields more power to determine what is deemed “valuable”. What does
the concept of ‘value’ mean in art, and in the art market?
DISCOVERIES 2010: Re-Value is an exhibition and conference that
attempts to address this question.
Mami Kataoka, Manray Hsu, and Colin Chinnery have invited 26 artists
whose works ask pertinent questions about the meaning of ‘value’
from different perspectives. The exhibition shall be presented in the
spectacular Main Hall of the Shanghai Exhibition Center.

The conference, Re-Value: The Construction and Consumption of Value in
Contemporary Art is hosted by UACC & ArtTactic in collaboration with
ShContemporary. Split between two sessions, the seminar will first
invite representatives from museums, art journals, foundations,
auction houses and galleries to discuss the art system that constructs
value from art; and then invites collectors to discuss value from the
other side – those who recognize and consume the value in art.

& Contemporary Art, National Galleries of Scotland SHEN Qibin:
