Groundbreaking Chinese artist Sun Xun brings his Mythological Time exhibition to the Vancouver Art Gallery. The exhibition follows the economic decline and eventual decay of Sun’s hometown of Fuxin in northern China and features the full extent of his multimedia talent, with works presented in drawing, painting, animation and installation. The centrepiece of the exhibit is an awe-inspiring 30-metre-long ink painting that has never been shown before. The exhibition runs all spring and summer and is free with admission to the art gallery.
