Inaugurated in 2019, Centre Pompidou x West Bund Museum Project in Shanghai represents a major and exemplary project of cultural cooperation and exchange between China and France, made possible by the expertise and the rich resources of Centre Pompidou. This partnership is reflected in a jointly curated program that fosters dialogue between the two artistic scenes and embraces a deliberately transitive approach—as illustrated by the recent exhibition "目 China, A New Generation of Artists", presented at Centre Pompidou.

Computer Worlds
24 septembre 2026 – 14 février 2027
Entièrement conçue à partir de la collection du Centre Pompidou, présentant quelque 180 œuvres et documents, « Computer Worlds » retrace une archéologie de la création numérique des années 1950 à nos jours, et dessine l'histoire continue des liens entre arts et informatique, de l’émergence de la cybernétique aux développements récents de l’intelligence artificielle et des NFT. Croisant les disciplines – nouveaux médias, design et architecture –, elle met en lumière les œuvres pionnières des fondateur·ices de l’art informatique tout en dévoilant les créations contemporaines les plus prospectives.
The West Bund Museum is located along the riverfront in Shanghai’s Xuhui district, an area officially recognized as a "model residential environment" in China. It is one of the flagship institutions of the West Bund’s Museum Mile.
Designed by Sir David Chipperfield and his team, the museum positions itself as a vital cultural platform, both within its neighborhood and the broader city. Its ambition is to serve as an open, interdisciplinary cultural hub, inviting visitors to actively engage with its spaces. Visitors are encouraged to explore a vibrant and diverse artistic scene and to participate—alongside Centre Pompidou x West Bund Museum Project—in shaping the cultural landscape of the city.
