Kim China Tour 2018 in Shanghai
Date: Dec 14－10 pm
Venue: Mao Livehouse, Shanghai
Kim's passion for music started at an early age. He spent all his pocket money on Metal and 70's rock records. When he was 9, he got his first guitar and was banging on a drum kit by the age of 11. Throughout his teenage years he played in various bands in Sweden. He found his love for Psy-Trance when a friend took him to his first party back in 1993. Kim was completely blown away by the music and the atmosphere. But it was not until 1999, while based in London, that he bought his first studio equipment and began producing Psy-Trance, Techno and Minimal House, and DJing in various parties around the Globe. In 2009 he started to work on his debut album, but his fate was altered when one foggy Christmas Eve in Goa in 2010, his house was burgled while he was at a rave, and he lost every piece of music he ever made (backups and all). However, the following year he set up a studio in Vagator, where over six months he wrote a bunch of new tracks and had a chance to collaborate with some top producers who passed the season in Goa.
Russell Young: Superstar in Shanghai
Date: Dec 8-Jan 6－10 am
Venue: Modern Art Museum, Shanghai
British-American contemporary artist Russell Young is best known for his compelling, larger-than-life silk-screen paintings of cultural icons. This exhibition presents the artist's work spanning the last two decades, portraying Liz Taylor, James Dean and Bob Dylan alongside political giants John and Jackie Kennedy and showing how Young absorbs, processes and re-contextualizes the imagery of popular culture from the second half of the twentieth century onward. This exhibition using "Superstar" as a concept focuses on the exhibition experience, trying to define the essence of what truly makes a "superstar" and interpret the process of creating a superstar. By presenting screen-printed reproductions of celebrity police mug shots, Young has stripped away their invincible pop status and replaced it with a more human identity, fracturing the conventional celebrity portrait and acknowledging the human beneath the icon, that popular culture often veils
