Richard Gluckman, the New York architect who designed the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh and oversaw the recent expansion of the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego, is undertaking the $20,000 million Beijing project. Leng Lin, a Chinese art critic and curator, has been appointed Pace Beijing's president.

This is Pace's first endeavor abroad. Chairman Arne Glimcher said the gallery will present four to six shows a year, with an overall focus on Chinese art. The first exhibition, "Encounters," will be a group show, with Chinese artists Zhang Huan and Zhang Xiaogang as well as Chuck Close and Alex Katz.
