Red Gate Gallery

Shunned by exclusive traditional art establishments, young artists circled through Beijing with slides of their work, searching for interested viewers.

[4] After completing his studies, Wallace founded Red Gate Gallery in the five-centuries-old Ming-era Southeast Corner Tower at Dongbianmen in what is now the Ming City Wall Relics Park of Dongcheng District.

[6] Also in 2008, Red Gate held a December art exhibit as a fundraiser for Shepherds Field Village children's orphanage.

Today, the gallery manages ten fully equipped facilities—four apartments in the downtown Tuanjiehu neighborhood and six studio/lofts northeast of the city in Feijiacun village.

Red Gate provides an entry point into the Chinese Contemporary Art scene in Beijing and hosts events for residents.

Informal Open Studio exhibitions are arranged every other month to showcase the projects resident artists have completed during their stay.

The Red Gate Gallery is housed inside the Southeast Corner Tower , a five-centuries-old relic of the Ming-era city wall at Dongbianmen.
