DUCHAMP and/or/in CHINA is the most comprehensive exhibition in China of Duchamp's works to date, as well as an investigation into his impact on the development of contemporary art in China. Presented in partnership with the Institut Français de Chine as part of the 2013 Croisements festival, Duchamp's Boîte-en-valise, a "portable museum" consisting of miniature reproductions of his key works, serves as a centerpiece to the exhibition. Related works by Duchamp as well as a special selection of works by Chinese artists who have been influenced by him provide an opportunity to observe the ways in which Duchampian themes and questions have played out in the particular context of contemporary art in China. The exhibition is curated by Francis Naumann and John Tancock, with featured Chinese artists including Ai Weiwei, Cai Yuan + Xi Jianjun, Huang Yong Ping, Lee Kit, Polit-Sheer-Form, Song Dong + Yin Xiuzhen, Taca Sui, Wang Jun-jieh, Wang Xingwei, Wu Shanzhuan, Xu Zhen, Zhao Zhao, and Zheng Guogu.
