Video and sound as a medium of suspended time can be experienced at the Skulpturenmuseum Glaskasten Marl, while the Osthaus Museum Hagen is showing installations and objects as paradigms of art. The Museum Folkwang in Essen is showing current Chinese photography with Works in Progress, while the NRW-Forum D\u00fcsseldorf is bringing together works by various artists and genres as an entr\u00e9e to the exhibition with Views of China. Together, this results in a multifaceted selection of the current art landscape of the People&#8217;s Republic of China.
