MOCA has earned its reputation as a pace-setter for contemporary art in Shanghai. Premier exhibits of foreign art regularly make their way into the gallery's modern People's Square digs.



Last month, I had the chance to view the Guggenheim Exhibition of American Art at the Shanghai's MoCA. Saturday, I went back for the Art of Dance Party. I found that the O'Keefes, Pollocks and Warhols had been replaced by a more modern and dynamic installation -- a few hundred guests who came out for MoCA's second-ever open party. MoCA's event space is as attractive as any of Shanghai's nightclubs with a spacious open-air patio, a sizable dance floor, and a couple of fully-stocked bars. Two DJs mixed classic funk with house, luring dancers to the floor and creating a lively club atmosphere. A nice alternative to the same old venues, I look forward to more MoCA parties in the future.
