  Meditations in an Emergency
  May 21 – August 30
  UCCA Center for Contemporary Art, Beijing
  This exhibition displays works by more than 20 domestic and foreign artists over the past 15 years that reflect on the role of art during a time of crisis.
  The exhibition is divided into five sections: “The Fragile Everyday,” “Vital Signs,” “Beyond Animality,” “Othered Movements” and “Out of Focus.” The works on display focus on daily life, illness and aging, connectivity, the thin line between human and animal, global flow of people and commodities, and the information landscape to predict the impact of the current experience on the future.
  The exhibition was named after an anthology of poetry by Frank O’Hara(1926-1966), better known during his short life as a curator at New York’s Museum of Modern Art.

  The Fair Ladies of Jiangnan: Traditional Chinese Paintings of Beauty from the Collection of Suzhou Museum
  May 18 – August 16
  Suzhou Museum, Suzhou
  A special theme of ancient Chinese figure paintings, the fair lady painting evolved into an independent genre by the middle of the Tang Dynasty (618-907) and peaked between the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing(1644-1911) dynasties.
  The show exhibits dozens of high-quality fair lady paintings from the mid-Qing Dynasty to modern times collected by Suzhou Museum. The paintings on varied media including hanging scrolls, fans and album leaves vividly capture the beauty of women of the Jiangnan(meaning “south of the Yangtze River”) area during the Ming and Qing dynasties with a delicate and elegant painting style.
