On September 1. 2015, many citizens in Shanghai enjoyed a fantastic experience in the Rain Room of YUZ Museum Shanghai, which was a large-scale interactive artwork created by the British-German artist group, Random International.

After its excellent performance in London's Barbican Art Centre in 2012 and New York's Museum of Modern Art in 2013, the famous Rain Room is presented from September 1 to December 31 of 2015 in YUZ Museum Shanghai as its first show in Asia.

Rain Room is an art space combined with fantasy and reality. Different from the real rain, perpetually falling water in the dark space know how to avoid raining on visitors.

This amazing system was designed and developed by the Random International three years ago. Countless 3D lens hid in the room monitor visitors' real-time movements and timely unload to the control system, and then the system controls the rainwater and gives the audience a fantastic 'dry' rainstorm.

As its first show in Asia and the largest one in the world, the Rain room covers 150 square meters and aims at giving every visitor a unique experience. The itinerant exhibition of the Rain Room will be held in China and other Asian countries, and the next one will be started in Beijing in the spring of 2016.
