Bund Art Festival fuses urban life with avant-garde art
Print Edition
THE 2025 Bund Art Festival is bringing a colorful lineup of activities to the Bund Finance Center, Fosun Foundation Shanghai and Yuyuan Garden Malls, sprucing up Shanghai’s cultural and creative landscape.
This year’s festival is themed “Grand Yuyuan Hypersense.” It combines urban life and avant-garde art through immersive light and shadow experiences, resulting in a sophisticated and romantic cultural setting for the golden fall.
The event, which runs until November 9, will have large-scale installations, interactive light displays, exhibitions and live performances.
On BFC’s North Plaza, a towering 18-meter azure “Earth” installation creates an interstellar atmosphere in which light and shadow interact. On the 5th floor terrace of the South Block, a 10-meter-diameter “super moon” rises in sync, enveloping the city in a veil of soft, silvery light.
The Earth and Moon installations face each other, creating a cosmic poem of celestial brilliance.
Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama’s work “Mechanical Muse” combines the graceful curves of the human body with the smooth textures of mechanical components, providing passers-by with a futuristic visual spectacle.
Qiu Anxiong, a Chinese artist, has created a work on the Fosun Foundation’s 4th-floor terrace that combines traditional Chinese landscape aesthetics with modern artistic expression.
Artists such as Alien Pam, Dong Jiali and Liu Ning will create works based on the theme of “The Bund 30 Years From Now.”
The foundation will host a series of exhibitions focusing on modern art, fashion and lifestyle aesthetics. The “Miss Dior: Stories of a Miss” immersive exhibition, French artist Laurent Fabius’ solo exhibition, and the “SOU•SOU Lifestyle and Culture Exhibition” that celebrates the beauty of Kyoto textiles and design are among the highlights.
A rich lineup of audiovisual performances will also be offered through LED screens and holographic gauze. Visitors can watch a theatrical performance by French choreographer Sophie Renier, as well as two Chinese animation classics, “Yao-Chinese Folktales” and “Calabash Brothers.”
In addition, electronic rooftop parties, craft markets and bazaars will dazzle with music, light and art, igniting a new surge of urban social activity in the city.
