Guangdong Times Museum

Guangdong Times Museum is a nonprofit institution funded by private sectors, and Times China has been the core funder since the inauguration of the Museum. Cofounded by Times Property (the former name of Times China) and Guangdong Museum of Art (GDMA), Times Museum was set up as a branch of GDMA at Times Rose Garden in 2003. When Wang Huangsheng, the former director of GDMA, along with Hou Hanru and Hans-Ulrich Obrist, invited Rem Koolhaas and Alain Fouraux to conceptualize an architectural proposal in the D-Lab of the 2nd Guangzhou Triennial in 2005, the Museum was incubated as a hub for artistic experiments in the Pearl River Delta region. After the completion of its facility, Guangdong Times Museum became independent and officially opened its door to the public in December 31, 2010. In November 2018, Guangdong Times Museum initiated Times Art Center Berlin as its parallel institution in Europe with the support of Times China.
