Center for Chinese Contemporary Art
"Multiculturalism is a big part of Manchester, and Chinese communities have been part of the fabric of the city since the beginning of the 20th century. The first Chinese restaurant opened as far back as 1948, and the Chinatown area is the second largest in the UK. Away from the Asian supermarkets and the steaming enticements of noodle shops, however, the CFCCA offers a culturally vital representation of modern China. Among the elegant redbrick buildings of the Northern Quarter, the CFCCA is a progressive institution specializing in the work of emerging and established modern artists. Particular importance is given to those whose work provokes questions about Chinese identity." - MATADOR_NETWORK
