About KennaXu Gallery Galleria d'arte
KennaXu Gallery è una galleria d'arte situata in un vecchio complesso residenziale di Shenzhen, in Cina. Lo spazio di 223 metri quadrati è stato ricavato da una precedente abitazione disposta su due piani stretti e poco luminosi. Il bianco è il colore dominante e crea uno sfondo essenziale e accogliente che valorizza il colore e la composizione dei dipinti esposti. I materiali comprendono pittura al lattice, membrana, pavimentazione in legno, vetro extrachiaro, piastrelle bianche e acciaio inossidabile bianco. Finestre dalle forme inconsuete captano la luce e i suoni provenienti dall'esterno, mettendo in relazione la galleria con la vita quotidiana del quartiere.

- Design Challenge
- There were also some unfavorable conditions as converting the former residence into an art space. The original space consisted of two floors, which were narrow and dim. The first floor had a low ceiling, looking like a storeroom, while the second floor featured an old-styled, disordered and fragmented spatial pattern. The overall space looked so different from an art space.
- Research
- The building, constructed in the 1990s within an old community, is the place where the gallery owner Kenna Xu spent his childhood. It carries his deep affection for Shenzhen, and also breeds his dream of establishing a contemporary art gallery that finds a foothold in the local area and pursues global visibility.
- Inspiration
- The space is dominated by white hue, which produces a modern, simplistic spatial tone as well as an inclusive backdrop that reveals the authenticity of things. It can fully display the color, composition, aesthetics and thinking of exhibited paintings. The design incorporates a sense of "emptiness" to create a free and serene ambience, with a view to enabling harmonious interaction between light and shadow, nature and artworks, and thereby achieving the beauty of art.
- Project Duration
- The project started in November, 2018 and finished in September, 2019 in the Intersection of Yitian Road and Fuqiang Road, Futian District, Shenzhen, China.
- Operation Flow
- The unique windows shake off traditional designs, and act as openings for conveying messages. Meanwhile, those structures bring in the daily chatter of residents, sounds of footsteps and birdsong from outdoor groves, which become background music for the art space. The gallery seems to grow here and closely integrates with the old community.
