Opening soon: PaceWildenstein

Attesting to the strength of the contemporary Asian market, with a fast-growing number of serious Chinese collectors, U.S. PaceWildenstein gallery (www.pacewildenstein.com) plans on opening an outpost in Beijing’s cutting-edge Factory 798 District. The gallery, which represents Tara Donovan, James Turrell and Chinese artists Zhang Huan and Zhang Xiogang, will be housed in a 22,000 square-foot space that used to be a factory. It is scheduled to open in early August, 2008, just in time for the summer Olympics.
