CHINESE OPEN TIME, can we now consider it an annual event? The Chinese Open is here again, last year it was the horse, this year the sheep..

“The Sheep are among the animals that people like most. It is gentle and calm. Since ancient times people have learned to use its fleece to make writing brushes and skin to keep warm. As it is white, people describe delicate and precious white jade to be ‘suet jade’.  Thus it is close to the meaning of good things.”

A Historic 3rd Consecutive CHINESE OPEN reclaims the multi-storey car park on Newport Place in the heart of Soho, Chinatown. You are cordially invited to join us and celebrate the arrival of sheep in our midst. Exhibition will feature over 100 international artists who work in various media including performative, video and sound installation works. Entry is free and we open at 12 noon sharp. Soho will be closed down to traffic on the Sunday 22nd and we highly recommend a brisk walk to Chinatown to view this wonderful array of works in a unique setting.
