This year’s fair – billed rather ambitiously as: “the only major international art show that provides a comprehensive top quality overview of the artistic scene in Asia” - will be hosted at the Shanghai Exhibition Centre. The 2008 edition coincides with the city’s much-acclaimed Shanghai Biennale.

Galleries will participate from Australia, Austria, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Philippines, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and the United States.
 
ShContemporary aims to “serve as a catalyst for exchanges between Western and Asian art worlds by supporting and cultivating the interactions of the rising art scenes of Asia with those worldwide,” according to a statement. The works, curated by 10 leading names from Asia Pacific, will be arranged as a museum like, sales exhibition in a large open space format with no exhibitor wall separations.
