That's Shanghai takes a look at the best art exhibitions of the week:
a través - descubrimientos urbanos

Tucked away on Anfu Lu, you'll find the Spanish Consulate General and the Miguel de Cervantes Library. In tandem with a newly released Spanish language guide to Shanghai, they're hosting an exhibition of the photography used from Alejandro Scott, Dodge He, Joán Llabata and Yao Yao. If you could use a little reminder of what sunshine in this city looks like, pop on over for a dose of local photography.
Until Mar 23, Miguel de Cervantes Library.
Social Geography: Ten Journeys with a Camera

This is your last weekend to catch the group show featuring 10 Chinese photographers that capture a range of regions and perspectives, cataloging the ways in which each sees the world as it stands. With over 200 works, they range from humorous to strange and sentimental in a collection of images representing 10 different takes on one country.
Until Feb 24, Shanghai Center of Photography.

If you find yourself in Jing'an tomorrow, head to Art Labor for the opening of Zhou Fan's solo show, where the artist will be present. The multi-media exhibition includes video, light boxes, works on paper and acrylic on canvas, in a fleuroscent collection exploring the concept of "interior", largely inspired by Haruki Murakami's The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.
Until Mar 7, Art Labor Gallery.
DISTANCE, VITESSE, TEMPS, FORMULE: Filipe Pantone

Reminiscent of Italian Futurism, this will be Pantone's first solo show in Shanghai. His works are bold, opticle spectacles that seamslessly work together in a space that seems designed for this kind of exhibition, with new pieces pressed specifically for the occasion.
Until Mar 16, Magda Danysz Gallery.
Chen Ke: The Real Deal is Talking with Dad

Beijing-based artist Chen Ke’s solo exhibition features a series of mixed media paintings and installations inspired by daily dialogues with her father, a traditional Chinese painter who taught at a middle school. Exploring family, youth and aging, the exhibition is filled with images attached to the artist's individual memories of her father, yet still providing a blank space for the audience to find their own deja vu.
Until Mar 24, Yuz Museum.
