Featuring works by Tang Mingxiu, Xie Zhen, Zhang Wenzhi, Guo Xiaoyi, and Shi Pengcheng, this exhibition traces how contemporary artists reinterpret the deep-rooted symbolism and tactile beauty of lacquer. From tradition to experimentation, the show opens a layered conversation—revealing lacquer’s potential as a poetic, philosophical, and cosmological medium in today’s art landscape.
