With thriving shipbuilding, commerce and industry, the southern section of Yangpu Waterfront, a strip of 5.5km along Huangpu River, made considerable contributions to the modernization of Shanghai. Now, as the historical area is redeveloping itself through transformation, we decide to hold Shanghai Urban Space Art Season 2019 (SUSAS 2019) and bestow it the theme of “Encounter”, the meeting of past and present, China and World.
