SHANGHAI GALLERY101 choose Artcoustic
This extraordinary gallery project by 101+ is a true reflection of our philosophy at Artcoustic: where sound, design, and lifestyle meet in perfect harmony. We are profoundly honored to be part of such an exclusive, world-class art space.
At Artcoustic, our mission extends beyond delivering uncompromising high-end sound. We craft experiences—immersive atmospheres where music elevates daily living into something extraordinary. Each loudspeaker is not only engineered for acoustic excellence but also designed as a timeless statement piece, embodying the elegance and refinement of Danish craftsmanship.
“This project in Shanghai exemplifies our belief in the art of high-end sound, the art of good craftmanship, the art of performance, and ultimately the art of living with good sound — where technology and beauty unite to enrich life in its most sophisticated form.“
—CEO & Co founder Patricia Ljungberg
Shanghai GALLERY101 located in Embankment Building along the Suzhou River, a ten-minute walk from the Bund. Nearby attractions include the Shanghai Postal Museum and historic architecture. Embankment Building constructed in 1930s and once known as the “First Apartment in the Far East”, features a simple and clean exterior with recognizable period characteristics.
The story of GALLERY101 started right here in 2023. This art space is the part of the 101+ Group, spans approximately 400 square meters and includes a main exhibition hall, a temporary exhibition hall and office areas. The original wall structure has been preserved, with sculptures and screens naturally dividing the space into distinct exhibition zones. The overall aesthetic leans toward wabi-sabi, rustic and relaxing.
GALLERY101 hosts a new collaboration every two to three months. From artists to designers, brands to cross-disciplinary creators, over a dozen exhibitions have been presented here. The space displays both artworks and gallery-level design furniture, allowing visitors to appreciate paintings, sculptures, installations, and other artworks while experiencing the lifestyle aesthetics embodied by design furniture.
Beyond the visual experience, this space also focuses on creating an auditory atmosphere. Selected music plays throughout the space, complemented by the Danish audio system Artcoustic. During art exhibitions, Artcoustic becomes a hidden element within the walls—not merely a device for background music, but an “invisible work of art.” This allows visitors to enjoy a rich sensory experience while viewing the exhibition, making the presentation of art more complete.
GALLERY101 aims to be an open and continuously evolving space. Here, people view exhibitions and engage in conversation, gradually sensing the connection between art and daily life through the daily sounds and atmosphere.
