The M+Sigg Collection Exhibition
Chinese art from the 1970s to now The Whitworth 1 July – 20 September 2015 Spanning forty years, the Whitworth's new major exhibition will explore questions concerning the conditions for artistic practice, freedom of expression and the freedom of art by taking visitors on a journey through the subversive practice of artists. The exhibition will be the first UK show curated from the renowned M+ Sigg Collection. It brings together 80 significant works by leading contemporary Chinese artists including Ai Weiwei, Cao Fei and Zhang Peili, to examine how art can question, challenge and stimulate.
