Catalogue published on the occasion of 'Shift: Exhibition on Young American Artists Creating On-site Artwork in China' which took place at the Guangdong Times Museum from July to August, 2011.

'This exhibition brought a group of New York-based artists to Guangzhou, in an effort to open up new possibilities of making exhibition by bringing together the Chinese and US art scenes. "Shift" differs from standard exhibitions in its emphasis on both the process of art creation and the presentation of art. It urges the American artists to look at the day-to-day realities of life in China from a new persepctive, and simultaneously allows Chinese viewers to experience the American artists' way of thinking.' - excerpted from the Foreword
