Move over, traditional canvases—Beijing’s art scene is buzzing with a new wave of creativity! 🚀 The Era of Encore exhibition, now open at the Beijing Times Art Museum, spotlights 32 rising artists born in or after the 1990s, showcasing 70 boundary-pushing works—26 of which were crafted exclusively for this event.
Co-hosted by the Beijing Dangdai Art Fair and the museum, the show dives into four key themes shaping today’s art: cultural legacy, tech-driven expression, social commentary, and aesthetic experimentation. Think augmented reality meets ink painting, or installations tackling climate change—all through the lens of a generation raised on memes and元宇宙 (metaverse) trends. 🖼️💡
Curators describe the exhibition as a \"dialogue between tradition and tomorrow,\" blending East Asian motifs with digital-age innovation. Whether you’re into VR poetry or recycled-material sculptures, Era of Encore proves Gen Z is rewriting the rules of art—one TikTok-inspired brushstroke at a time. 📱✨
