Sigg championed the artists he admired, working tirelessIy for their international recognition and to preserve their artwork as a record of China s tumultuous and historic changes. EventualIy, Sigg became the Swiss ambassador to China and a consuItant on major Chinese art projects, including the construction of the Bird s Nest stadium for the Olympic Games.
Directed by art historian MichaeI Schindhelm, THE CHINESE LIVES OF ULl SIGG is a history of China s recent opening to the West, and of the West s embrace of Chinese contemporary art, through the eyes of Sigg and the artists he championed. |
