Dragon-themed artworks on show in Shanghai for Chinese New Year
Chinese dragon, deeply rooted in Chinese civilization as cultural icons, has left an indelible mark on history, literature, art, folklore, and everyday life. To welcome the Year of the Dragon, a show titled "10,000 Dragons Art Exhibition" is now underway at the Xiao Hui Wang Art Museum in Shanghai.
Featuring Chinese dragons from past and present-day culture, the exhibition aims to delve into the origins of Chinese dragon culture, while embracing the contemporary trends in artistic creation. "Traditional culture, contemporary art, fashion elements, and the latest technology are our four key elements. The combination of these elements is the most important feature of this exhibition," said artist Xiao Hui Wang, who is also the founder of the museum.
The organizers have expressed an ambition to redefine the conventional animal zodiac exhibition with "10,000 Dragons Art Exhibition," incorporating innovative forms of displays and encouraging creators to embrace technology to improve content creation.
