The Sui Jian Guo Art Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization founded by the Chinese artist Sui Jian Guo in March, 2016, the first initiative of its kind in China. The mandate of the organization is to encourage public appreciation of the visual arts, especially modern and contemporary sculpture, and to preserve Sui’s legacy at home and worldwide. The foundation aims to establish an educational platform in support of critical research and practices that can enhance public knowledge of the past and present of sculpture.
Foremost among the foundation’s initiatives is the publication of the Translations in Modern and Contemporary Sculptural Theory, an ongoing series of critical and historical texts specifically related to sculpture.
