The Chinese Contemporary Art Award (CCAA) opened its 15th anniversary exhibition on April 26 at Shanghai’s Power Station of Art (PSA). The exhibition included a range of artists who have won awards; each artist had one or two pieces—with the notable exception of Ai Weiwei, whose name was in fact covered over (a source indicated that as a government organ, the PSA wanted to avoid anything sensitive). There were also video interviews with critics of the Critics’ Prize, with a little book display which, unfortunately, was not prepared to sell the books (at least on a day after the opening).

Also take a look at our interview with the founder and collector extraordinaire Uli Sigg and also our Q&A with the director of the CCAA Anna Liu Li.
