Sovrn & the artist's estate are dedicated to establishing Chang's work as canon, and it's well on its way.
It's been incredible to see the love for this project, the tools that the community has built for it, the extraordinarily rigorous cataloging by the Trait Council, the 6-month retrospective at China's leading contemporary arts institution, seeing Chang contextualized among the canon of systems artists in the press, witnessing people discover his work every day.
The process of forming the artist's estate as a legal entity is finally being settled, and we're working with them to bring the retrospective to Europe & the US, as well as finding museum placements for Chang's body of work. The reception so far has been amazing, and we're going full steam ahead.
If you're new to the project, you can learn about it in the thread below, as well as on the project site.
