We combine our gallery activity with a residency program, which opened summer of 2011, with most intense activity each year and where spend emerging artists from the 5 continents. In many cases, the excellent work they have produced in the residence, has subsequently been institutionally recognized in their home countries.
Pantocrator Gallery through its residencies programs, seeks to strengthen intercultural relations between artists of proven track record and emerging artists.
We have focused our attention on the economy capital of the Asian giant to develop our gallery and residency aware of the endless possibilities offered by this new world power.
Shanghai; metropolis in exciting growth stage where coexist the most breakthrough and the most traditional of China, city of contrasts which inspires and fascinate the artists where the sense of security is full and where the currency exchange remains very favorably for West.
Pantocrator Gallery is located in one of the most important artistic centers of China, the M50 complex in Moghanshan Lou in which are concentrated over a hundred local and international galleries, studios of local artists and design agencies.
