From Hainan to Beijing, and Chengdu to Shanghai, China Lab has been critically documenting China’s urban phenomena over the course of three years. Through strategic design, fieldwork, workshops, and symposia, this experimental research unit at Columbia University GSAPP has been constructing a network of multi-disciplinary participant-researchers, to open up the discourse on architecture and urbanism in China, as well as to share resources and methodologies. Instead of presenting solutions, each project in the exhibition represents a method of perceiving and critiquing urban development, and raises questions for the range of participants in China’s cities: developers, policymakers, architects, planners, and citizens. Through this exhibition, we invite you to take away, experiment with, and re-connect your ideas into the network.

由海南到北京，由成都到上海，中国实验室不断地在这三年里对中国的城市现象进行记录。透过策划设计、实地考察、工作坊及研讨会，这个在哥伦比亚大学建筑学院中的实验性研究单位建立了一个由跨行业的研究员组成的网络，并由此尝试开放有关对中国建筑及城市的讨论领域及共享研究成果及方法。每个在展览中的项目不是一个解决问题的答案，而是一套理解及批判城市发展的新视角，及向中国城市发展的参与者提出更多的问题。在此次展览中，我们希望您能得到一些新的启发，作出新的尝试，并将您的想法，创意反馈给我们的网络。
