Work by Richard Deacon is on view at the START Museum in Shanghai as part of the group exhibition I / witness / gold-paved / Shanghai, which opened to the public on 29 June 2025 and is planned to run for six months. As reported by Thaddaeus Ropac, the gallery that announces the participation of Deacon and of Anselm Kiefer, this is the museum's annual large-scale exhibition and the fourth and final instalment of its inaugural series, after START (2022), Thus Spoke The Moment (2023) and Frontier (2024), which together featured more than 170 artists. The exhibition asks whether the definitions of who is an artist and of what art is need to be revisited. The announcement does not name the works by Deacon on display.
