　　The “Research-based exhibition” is a type of art exhibition with specific characteristics and functions. As an institution dedicated to both art research and exhibition, the OCAT Institute has initiated the “research-based exhibition” as an integral part of its annual programs since 2018.

　　2. The submitted proposal shall be original and experimental. We encourage relatively small-scaled and flexible exhibitions.

　　3. Based on the exhibition in question, objects to be included can range from archives, manuscripts, photographs, publications, artworks, etc. Above all, exhibitions shall emphasize scholarly merits, rather than merely exhibiting artworks.

　　2. All applications will be reviewed by a committee led by Wu Hung, alongside guest consultants.

　　3. One or two proposals will be selected and implemented at OCAT Institute for a period of 2-3 months.
