I whakaatuhia e te Shanghai Fosun Art Center te whakaaturanga toi tuatahi a te kaitoi Amerikana a Alex Israel i Haina: "Alex Israel: Freedom Highway". Ka whakaatuhia e te whakaaturanga he maha ngā kaitoi, e kapi ana i ngā mahi toi maha tae atu ki ngā whakaahua, ngā peita, ngā whakairo, ngā taputapu kiriata, ngā uiuinga, ngā whakaurunga me ētahi atu pāpāho, tae atu ki te mahi hou i te tau 2021 me te whakaaturanga tuatahi o te raupapa rongonui "Self-Portrait" "Me "The Curtain of the Sky".
I whānau mai a Alex Israel i Los Angeles i te tau 1982. Hei te whakatipuranga matua o ngā kaihanga toi whai mana puta noa i te ao, e mōhiotia ana a Alex Israel mō āna peita neon gradasi ā-pūāhua, āna whakaahua whaiaro rongonui, me tana whakamahinga māia o ngā pāpāho hou me ngā rauemi rerekē.
Ko te whakaahua upoko nui o te kaitoi, he mea hanga ki te papa muka karāhe, hei papamuri mō te raupapa o ngā mahi toi katoa. E whakaatu ana te whakaahua upoko kanapa i te tohu-ake i raro i te ahurea Ipurangi. Kei roto i te papamuri o te whakaahua upoko ngā ihirangi ahurea whakamere, kanorau hoki mai i ngā tirohanga o Los Angeles, ngā whakaaturanga kiriata, te ahurea rongonui, me ētahi atu. He tohu māngai tēnei raupapa o ngā mahi toi mō te mahi a te kaitoi.
