The 13th Westbund Art & Design will run from Nov 10 to 15 in Shanghai, bringing more than 150 exhibitors from around the world to four waterfront venues.

The fair is also a key project of the eighth Shanghai International Artwork Trade Week.

Showcasing leading galleries from 45 cities and regions worldwide, the fair will span four iconic waterfront landmarks along the Huangpu River: West Bund International Convention and Exhibition Center, West Bund Art Center, Gate M West Bund Dream Center, and Orbit.

World-renowned institutions such as Hauser & Wirth, White Cube, Perrotin, and Thaddaeus Ropac will return, alongside 22 first-time emerging participants from home and abroad.

These debut galleries hail from countries including Belgium, China, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Russia, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States, offering overseas collectors a dynamic look at the evolving global art ecosystem.

With the theme "In Relation (to)", the design /delight section will explore how collectible design and functional art can reshape everyday environments.

Other highlights include the "Perspective" section, which focuses on cross-disciplinary cultural exchanges, and "DREAM moving image", which showcases contemporary video art.

The West Bund Voice forum, presented by Bottega Veneta, will feature 21 cross-disciplinary panel discussions, serving as a vital exchange platform for leading artists, designers, and curators.
