Saatchi Gallery, Duke of York Square, Chelsea, SW3 4RY
How Much:
Free!
It's here at last! After a few delays, the feverishly anticipated Saatchi Gallery lands in Sloane Square with a major exhibition of contemporary Chinese art.
China is clearly the hot place right now, and although the delay in the opening of the gallery means that (for once) Saatchi is a wee bit behind the curve, you can pretty much guarantee that he's made up for it in terms of quality and scale.
There's work across a variety of media by thirty of the country's leading contemporary artists. Expect this show to have an influence on Western art comparable to that of the Fall of Constantinople upon the Renaissance.
Until 18.01.09.
