Continuing the path of contemporaneity of contemporary art, we strive to expand the boundaries of art forms and expressive languages, and seek and explore in critical solidified thinking and reflection on existing definitions. Chic, new, and aesthetically pleasing attempts seem to make for a friendly visual experience more easily. In fact, no matter what, if we can provide diversified art forms in the same era, so that the public has a more equal opportunity to view, and artists have a more equal opportunity to create and exhibit, it seems to become more interesting.

As the core carrier and medium of traditional Chinese art, ink painting can be seen as the link between the past, the present and the future, which not only maintains the state of traditional culture, but also integrates the skills, ideas and social care of Western contemporary art. In the vivid and vivid samples of young people in the exhibition, the exploration of ink painting is no longer the core of their artistic creation, they pay more attention to the content and form of painting, and pay more attention to the metaphor and symbolism of images, so as to create more layered works of art, highlighting the intensity and strength of more dense and deep into life. Together with the audience, in the continuous exploration of young artists, we deconstruct and interpret new cultural trends, and extend the boundaries of ink and wash infinitely through the collision, exchange and integration of contemporary and contemporary, contemporary and traditional, and depict more possibilities for the future in the name of youth.
The exhibition will last until January 4, 2024.
