Pulse of the Dragon is curated by Guan Wei and Cang Xin. Guan Wei is a local artist with a Chinese heritage. He has exhibited widely around the world and he was the first Chinese-Australian artist to have a solo show at the MCA in 2019.

The participating artists emphasise themes of religious witchcraft, mythology, folk art and folk culture as methods for opening-up understandings and perspectives of Chinese culture.

Pulse of the Dragon features a dynamic line-up of Chinese and Chinese-Australian artists, who approach these concepts from their local and international perspectives.

The exhibition artists include: Amy Fu (AUS/CHN), Cang Xin (CHN), Guan Wei (AUS/CHN [Glenfield, NSW]), Gu Xiaoping (CHN), Jiang Zhe (CHN), Palla Jeroff (AUS/ CHN), Yang Jinsong (CHN), Yang Xifa (AUS/CHN), Zhang Jin (CHN), Jin Sha (AUS/CHN)
