Led by Guangdong Museum of Art director Wang Shaoqiang, the 7th Guangzhou Triennial featured works by 59 artists (2022) filled the museum’s atrium. Guangzhou artist Xin Wei’s mixed-material sculpture (2018) investigated the acumination of different historical periods above the site of Nanyue Kingdom Palace, revealing traces of Guangzhou’s historical establishment away from Sinocentric narratives. Song Dong’s (2016) invited visitors to write with water on a heated metal stele in the form of an ancient Chinese memorial, an interactive process that “translates” the messages into ephemeral traces.
