Within Shanghai’s dynamic cultural scene, Changle Road — long a hub for streetwear and home to local heroes like Labelhood and global names such as Supreme — is welcoming a new hybrid art-and-fashion space. Founded by Shanghai-based arts philanthropist and cultural entrepreneur Cherry Xu, Cheruby aims to help revive the street’s creative energy.
“Fifteen years ago, the most avant-garde energy came out of Changle Road. I want this to be the case again.”

Housed in a three-story historic building that has sat empty since a jewelry brand left three years ago, Cheruby stands to plant the seed of contemporary art within streetwear culture. Its inaugural exhibition features Mexico City-based artist Bárbara Sánchez-Kane with a two-month residency in which they explored local street culture and reinterpreted its artifacts.
Titled “Coro de Soles Menores,” the show presents 12 new works spanning fashion, performance, installation, and sculpture. A small merch line designed by Sánchez-Kane, priced from 380 renminbi ($53) to 4,300 renminbi ($603) is also available. The free exhibition runs until March 31.
