Founded in 2008, Arrow Factory is one of the longest standing, independent, non-commercial art spaces in Beijing. Located in a narrow alley inside the city center, this 15 square meter space organizes an innovative program, focusing on site-oriented artistic display, collaboration and experimentation by local and international contemporary artists. Please join us for a presentation by Rania Ho and Wang Wei, who will provide some background on Arrow Factory and introduce their recent publication, “Arrow Factory: The Next Four Years,” which comprehensively documents the twenty-two projects mounted in this reclaimed storefront between 2011 and 2015. This publication features new perspectives from organizers of influential artist-run initiatives around the world and is structured around the elemental question: What is a good institution? Through the responses to this and other questions, “Arrow Factory: The Next Four Years” offers a window into the diverse conditions that shape China’s current cultural climate.
