Join world renowned contemporary Chinese artist Zhang Huan in conversation with Asian Art Museum Director Jay Xu. Zhang’s colossal work Three Heads Six Arms (2008) will make its world premiere as the focal point of Joseph L. Alioto Performing Arts Piazza, which is located in the heart of San Francisco’s Civic Center, nestled between City Hall and the Asian Art Museum.
Standing over 26 feet tall and weighing almost 15 tons, the copper sculpture is the artist’s largest work to date. Zhang, who is based in Shanghai, is widely regarded as one of the most influential and provocative contemporary artists working today.
