Shanghai Art Museum
The China Art Palace is one of China’s largest and most ambitious art museums. It has 64,000 sq. m of exhibition space divided into 27 halls. The curators plan to collect and exhibit classic works that show the origins and development of Chinese modern art, acquired from the collections of government-owned art companies and museums.
"Its opening exhibition has five parts, which do not yet have official English translations. The 600 pieces in “Shanghai Brightness” trace the origins of China ’s modern art. “Congratulations from the World” features 100 pieces from seven countries. “Splendid China ” features 250 works of 21st-century Chinese art, while “Historical Shanghai Contexts” includes 64 pieces.
The “Masters’ Hall” features 460 works from artists including Lin Fengmian, Guan Liang and Wu Guanzhong. The multimedia recreation of the classic scroll “Ascending the River at Qingming Festival” that was the China Pavilion’s star attraction during the Expo will be on permanent display. “Miller, Courbet and Naturalism in France”, featuring loans from the Musée d’Orsay, Paris, is due to open in November."
The most recommended exhibition is the electronic edition of the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival in Exhibition Hall 5. This art work used to be very popular in the China Pavilion during the 2010 Shanghai Expo. Entry to this hall is 20 yuan (it is the only hall of China Art Palace with entrance fee).
The art works related to birthday congratulations exhibited in Hall 4 are another highlight. Visitors can appreciate these art works standing on conveyor belt.
Following Hall 4 is a hall exhibiting the works of Shanghai Art Film Studio 
(a studio that has made numerous excellent Chinese cartoons and films). Visitors can watch cartoons and films there.
