Power Station of Art is China's only state-run contemporary art museum. It was opened in 2012 to stage the splendid Shanghai Biennale. The museum is so large that it can put on several exhibitions at the same time on its many floors. It has no permanent collection so the shows keep changing.

China Art Museum
Your art tour of Shanghai really ought to include this irresistible, and often exhausting, museum, in the previous Chinese Expo pavilion (展馆)on the other side of the river in Pudong. Works on display cover modern and contemporary periods, and there are numerous temporary exhibitions, including touring shows from abroad. Information tends to be in Chinese, making it a little more challenging. A visit is worth it just for the fantastic building and its views of the city.
