"Of all my residencies in Europe and Asia, the possibility to work at the Swatch Art Peace Hotel in Shanghai stood out in many ways. The well-designed ambience and interchange with many artists of different ages and professions was quite an inspiration in combination with the bustling city around. Just a peaceful retreat in such a central location, crucial for my working experience. I have to thank for the great opportunity to exhibit in such an extraordinary place with its history and and well renovated interior. Swatch gave me the confidence to manage such a project of a large solo show in Shanghai." (Anita Gratzer)
