"We receive visitors who are confused by contemporary art. They're always looking for meaning. But that's already past tense with art. It might just be about your emotion, your thoughts, your way of expression. That's all. There's no right or wrong."

This may be baffling to some, but luckily all of the attendants in the exhibition halls are trained to discuss art with patrons, having been schooled by curators or artists themselves.

Xu acknowledges that many people new to contemporary art may find it "messy, stupid or crazy," but as long as they find it interesting, she feels satisfied that the work has had an impact.
