The company has unveiled its world-first MINISO Gallery at Shanghai’s Bund City Hall Plaza, launching with its opening exhibition featuring MINISO’s first global exclusive artist, RYOL, a contemporary Indonesian artist.
MINISO Gallery is a new top-tier art exhibition space open to creators worldwide, providing an independent platform for IP‑driven artistic expression.
As MINISO’s global retail network expands, its IP portfolio now reaches consumers across over 100 countries and regions, supported by more than 8,000 stores worldwide in key cities including New York, Paris, London and Dubai. While this network provides extensive consumer reach, deeper content and artistic expression remains essential for long‑term IP value. In response, MINISO introduces MINISO Gallery to provide structured support for emerging artists worldwide through long‑term, platform‑based collaboration.
Located in the heart of the Shanghai Bund, the Gallery occupies the Bund City Hall Plaza at 201 Hankou Road, a historic building recognised as an urban landmark with public cultural significance. Just a ten-minute walk from the world’s first MINISO LAND, the site sits within a high traffic, culturally influential urban area, bridging public cultural space and contemporary art.
For its opening exhibition, MINISO Gallery opens with a solo exhibition by its first Global Exclusive Artist RYOL, an emerging Indonesian contemporary artist active on the international stage. Titled Life from the Corner of My Room, the exhibition will run from 17 May to 31 August, presenting a selection of the artist’s recent paintings, sculptures and installations that trace the artist’s development from intimate, room-based creations to works exploring the interplay between childhood innocence and real-world experience.
