Founded by Indonesian-Chinese collector Budi Tek, Yuz Museum occupies a converted 1950s aircraft hangar and is one of Shanghai's premier destinations for large-scale international contemporary art. The soaring ceilings allow for monumental installations that few venues in the city can accommodate. Exhibitions rotate and have included major works by Damien Hirst and Maurizio Cattelan; check the schedule as it occasionally closes between shows.
