: Xu Xingzhi's Dramatic Art | This exhibition will Close On October 31st

2025-10-31

"A Majestic Ode to China--Xu Xingzhi's Artistic Achievement"Exhibition SitePromotional Video for “A Heroic Ode ToChina – Xu Xingzhi's Artistic Achievements”Xu Xingzhi is an important figure that cannot be overlooked in the development of modern Chinese drama. Having received professional training in fine arts, he made achievements in multiple fields such as drama, film, fine arts, and poetry, demonstrating his cross-media artistic talents. With a firm left-wing stance, he participated in the modern drama movement, was active in groups like the Shanghai Art Troupe, and personally witnessed and promoted the birth and development of modern Chinese drama.In terms of drama theory, he proposed that drama should possess both "inner" and "outer" dimensions, and emphasized a comprehensive theory of the integration of performance and viewing. The former emphasizes that drama integrates various art forms, while the latter highlights the interactive relationship among the audience, the theater, and the actors. He forward-lookingly emphasized the importance of theatricality and the interaction between the audience and the performers.In terms of creation, he had both screenwriting and directing talents. His representative works include Eternal Love adapted from a world classic, The Last Christmas Eve which depicts the lives of people after the fall of Hong Kong, and the six-act play The True Story of Ah Q, which was polished and revised over many years with his painstaking efforts. All these works reflect his concern for reality and his exploration of artistic forms.He integrated his literary accomplishment, fine arts skills and theatrical practice, endowing the stage with profound humanistic spirit and artistic appeal. He was truly a versatile dramatist. His thoughts and works still hold inspiring significance to this day.——Ding LuonanProfessor, Shanghai Theatre AcademyThis exhibition is by far the largest and most comprehensive retrospective of Xu Xingzhi's artistic achievements. Through more than 400 representative works as well as precious documents, it presents the artist's outstanding accomplishments in multiple fields—including painting, art history, literature, film, and drama—to the audience in an all-round, multi-dimensional, and in-depth manner. The exhibition will close on October 31st; audiences who are interested should not miss it!The First Page of Xu Xingzhi's Anti-Japanese Children's Drama Script The Bell of the Ancient Temple (1936)The First Page of Xu Xingzhi's Anti-Japanese Children's Drama Script The Last Lesson (1936)In February 1937, the anti-Japanese children's drama The Bell of the Ancient Temple (cover), written by Xu Xingzhi, was published by Shanghai Xinzhi Bookstore. According to Beyond the Great Wall by Mrs. Snow (Nym Wales), this children's drama was staged in Yan'an shortly afterwards.Stage Photo of Thunderstorm, a play by Cao Yu, Directed by Xu Xingzhi and Performed by the Blue Bird Drama Troupe, December 1937In 1937, Xu Xingzhi adapted Lu Xun's classic work into a six-act drama The True Story of Ah Q for the first time. The script of this drama was serialized in the 10th issue of the 2nd volume of the semi-monthly magazine Brightness. Soon after, the drama was staged by the "Chinese People's Anti-Japanese Drama Troupe" in Yan'an, and it was watched by the leaders of the Communist Party of China (CPC) as well as the military and civilians in Yan'an. The picture shows the cover of this issue.In 1939, an American female journalist published Beyond the Great Wall. In Chapter 3, "The Mobile Troupe", she recorded that Xu Xingzhi's plays The True Story of Ah Q and The Bell of the Ancient Temple were staged in Yan'an.Cover of the stage play script The True Story of Ah Q, adapted from Lu Xun's famous work by Xu Xingzhi, compiled and printed by the Shanghai Drama Art Research Association, August 1939In 1939, Xu Xingzhi adapted Lu Xun's work into the script of a six-act drama The True Story of Ah Q for the second time. The script was published by Guangming Bookstore in 1940 and went through its 10th printing in 1953.In July 1939, after Xu Xingzhi adapted the six-act drama The True Story of Ah Q for the second time, he personally directed the Sino-French Drama Troupe in a performance run that lasted for half a month. This caused a great sensation at that time. The picture shows the printed performance script compiled and published back then.At the end of July 1939, director Xu Xingzhi posed for a group photo with Wang Zhuyou, the actor who played Ah Q.After the fall of Shanghai in 1938, Xu Xingzhi actively participated in the progressive drama movement in the concession areas and directed a number of stage plays. This is a group photo of him with the actors after he directed Romain Rolland's The Struggle Between Love and Death.In February 1940, Xu Xingzhi directed Xia Yan's drama The Wedding Night, which was staged by the Dazhong Drama Troupe at the Shanghai Russian Art Theatre.In October 1956, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Lu Xun's death, a number of theater troupes across the country re-staged the six-act drama The True Story of Ah Q adapted by Xu Xingzhi. The picture shows a stage photo from the performance by the Shenyang Drama Troupe.| Artist Profile |Xu Xingzhi (1904–1991) was a renowned Chinese artist, art historian and theorist, art educator, film and drama director and screenwriter, pioneer of the Left-wing Art Movement, literary and art warrior, member of the Council of the Chinese Artists Association, and professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. In his early years, he graduated from the Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts and the Tokyo School of Fine Arts in Japan.

: Wonderful Review | "Energy and Civilization - Science & Art · Fusion Future”Popular Science Exhibition Concludes Successfully

2025-10-28

On October 13, 2025, the large-scale science popularization exhibition titled "Energy and Civilization - Science & Art · Fusion Future", which lasted for nearly a month, successfully concluded at the Art Museum of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. As China's first museum-level science and art exhibition themed on "controllable nuclear fusion", it was co-sponsored by the Central Academy of Fine Arts, the Energy Research Institute of Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center, and the People's Government of Hefei Municipality, and jointly undertaken by Big Sun (Hefei) Culture and Technology Co., Ltd. and the Science and Art Joint Laboratory of the Energy Research Institute of Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center. Since its opening on September 14, the exhibition has attracted widespread attention from the fields of science, art and education, and become a brilliant highlight among the series of events of the 2025 National Science Popularization Month, Beijing International Design Week and China (Hefei) International Science and Art Week.With "energy iteration and civilization evolution" as its context, the exhibition focuses on controllable nuclear fusion, a cutting-edge technology. Through the in-depth integration of historical documents, scientific devices and contemporary art creations, it builds a bridge connecting rational science and perceptual aesthetics. In the immersive experience, visitors can not only review the magnificent course of human civilization driven by energy in front of the document wall, but also intuitively feel the infinite potential of nuclear fusion energy through interactive devices. A number of large-scale science and art installations transform abstract concepts such as plasma and magnetic confinement into perceivable light, shadow and dynamic forms, realizing the two-way inspiration between science and art.Installation Work LightningTesla Coil, Provided by Steel Sun (Hefei) Culture and Technology Co., Ltd.The exhibition site presented a number of large-scale scientific installation works, such as Lightning, Artificial Sun and Wave-Making. These works effectively broke down the disciplinary barriers between science and art, transformed the abstract principles of nuclear fusion into intuitive sensory experiences, and further guided the audience to think deeply about the intrinsic connection between human beings and energy."Scientific Device for Controlled Nuclear Fusion"Providers: Neutron Technology Application Research Center, Energy Research Institute of Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (Hefei Institutes of Physical Science) Neutral Beam Injection Research Laboratory (Laboratory 13)"Scientific Device for Tokamak"Provider: School of Nuclear Science and Technology, University of Science and Technology of ChinaThe exhibition also featured a special display of several cultural relics related to nuclear fusion science, showcasing the precision and mysteries of the physical world. These items include China's Tokamak device KT-5 and the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST); both the physical objects and models document key historical milestones in China's nuclear fusion research. Since the 1960s, China has launched research on magnetic confinement fusion, with Tokamak becoming the main research path.Video Work The Song of the Distant SunAGI Video: 19 minutes and 8 seconds, 50 frames per second, 4K high-definition video (3840x2160),16:9 aspect ratio, color, stereo sound, LED screen installationProvided by Tianyu ARTECH x Energy Research Institute Science & Art Joint LaboratoryThe exhibition also presented an AI-generated video work The Song of the Distant Sun. The film interprets the historical records of solar cultural symbols and the technical vision of controlled nuclear fusion's "artificial sun", showing different "sun-creating" practices spanning time and space. Both the vision of an energy utopia and technical reflections exist in this algorithm-shaped video. When unlimited energy becomes a reality and the human world returns to a human-centered ideal state, what kind of brand-new solar chronicle will we write with controlled nuclear fusion?Literature Wall "Energy and Civilization"The Literature Wall in the exhibition is divided into distinct historical periods—including the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, the Industrial Age, and the Nuclear Energy Age—based on the evolution of energy use types. Along this timeline, it demonstrates the progression of humanity’s approaches to energy utilization. Embedded throughout is a core thread: the continuous enhancement of temperature control capabilities. From merely harnessing the ordinary temperature of fire in the Stone Age to achieving an electron temperature of 160 million degrees Celsius in the Nuclear Energy Age, this progression reflects the remarkable improvement in humanity’s ability to master energy as the times advance.During the exhibition, the organizers held a series of high-quality linked events that successfully sparked public discussions on "the future of energy" and "controlled nuclear fusion". This was not only a feast for the eyes and the mind, but also an energy enlightenment journey oriented toward the future.Photos of the Opening Ceremony SiteOn the morning of September 14th, the large-scale popular science exhibition "Energy and Civilization - Science & Art · Fusion Future" grandly opened at the CAFA Art Museum. The opening ceremony was attended by a distinguished gathering: leaders of the organizer and co-organizer, experts and scholars from the scientific and art circles, as well as invited guests from all walks of life gathered together to witness the launch of this interdisciplinary grand event. At the scene, children lit up the stage with a futuristic performance. Their pure perspective and the theme of nuclear fusion (which symbolizes humanity’s ultimate energy source) complemented each other, injecting vigorous vitality and hope into this interdisciplinary celebration.Photos of the Opening Ceremony Performance SiteOn the afternoon of the opening ceremony, a themed forum with the same name was held in the lecture hall of the CAFA art museum. Following the thread of the evolutionary relationship between human civilization and energy technology, the forum focused on "controlled nuclear fusion"—an ultimate energy source crucial to the future. Experts and scholars from multiple fields including energy, art, popular science, and science fiction were invited to conduct three roundtable discussions around the core topic of "Energy and Civilization". The roundtables were as follows: Roundtable 1: Energy · Electricity · Science Fiction – The Dominance of Narrative in Future Civilization; Roundtable 2: Science · Public Education · Communication – The New Wave of Popular Science Education in China; Roundtable 3: Science · Art · Resonance – When Humanity Possesses the Ability to Create Stars.On the morning of September 18th, the lecture series of the "Energy and Civilization - Science & Art · Fusion Future" exhibition grandly invited Academician Li Jiangang to deliver a popular science lecture. Academician Li holds multiple positions, including Member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Chief Scientist of the Energy Research Institute, and Researcher at the Institute of Plasma Physics. The lecture, titled Holding Up the Sun of Tomorrow: Current Status and Future Prospects of Magnetic Confinement Fusion, was a themed popular science sharing session. Xu Yang, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and Lin Mao, President of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, attended the exhibition event.Starting from the historical evolution of humanity’s energy utilization, Academician Li Jiangang systematically expounded on the important significance and technical paths of developing fusion energy. Combining his own scientific research experience, he vividly introduced the development process of China’s independently designed and constructed fully superconducting tokamak nuclear fusion experimental device (EAST), elaborated in detail on China’s "three-step" development strategy for nuclear fusion energy research, and made a professional outlook on the application prospects of fusion energy in multiple fields beyond power generation. This event not only built a high-quality interdisciplinary exchange platform for scientific researchers, art practitioners, university teachers and students, and the public, but also effectively enhanced the public’s understanding of energy technology and civilization development through a new perspective of science and art, winning unanimous praise from the participants.Site of Academician Li Jiangang's Popular Science LectureOn September 20, 2025, the salon series of "Energy and Civilization - Science & Art · Fusion Future" was held at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. With the theme "How Does the Scientific Community Shape the Narrative of the Future?", this session was hosted by curator Shen Cong.The event invited Hu Yilin (Ph.D. in Philosophy from Peking University, former Associate Professor of the Department of History of Science at Tsinghua University), Bao Yuhan (Lecturer at the School of International Organizations of Beijing Foreign Studies University), and Gao Rencheng (Industry Representative, Co-founder and CEO of Gene Creation) to engage in a dialogue. They jointly explored how the scientific community, through interactions with fields such as policy, capital, and art, constructs society’s collective imagination of the technological future and promotes public participation in envisioning the future.Site of the Salon Series Event "How Does the Scientific Community Shape the Narrative of the Future?"On the afternoon of October 7th, a unique "Scientists VS Artists Salon" will be held in the museum. Top scientists in the fields of controlled nuclear fusion and artificial intelligence will engage in interdisciplinary dialogues with curators and artists, presenting a brainstorming session on future energy to the public.With the theme "A Brainstorm Between Scientists and Artists", this salon aims to break down disciplinary barriers and build a public platform for in-depth communication. The event specially invites Dr. Dong Shan recommended speaker for national touring popular science lectures, Dr. Kong Defeng Director/Chief Scientist of the Fusion Industry Center, and Dr. Wang Lishi Assistant Researcher at the Energy Research Institute to discuss together with exhibition curators—including Zhang Zhaohong, the teacher and Chief Curator of the Sculpture Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts —and curator/scholar Su Lei.

: 艺术之光点亮泉城！中央美术学院青年艺术展亮相城投·湖光里

2025-10-27

10月22日，"逐光同行——中央美术学院青年艺术作品邀请展·济南站”在城投湖光里方寸·光艺术中心正式启幕。2025年中央美术学院毕业季以“逐光而行”为主题，探寻艺术与生命中的光芒与方向。而今我们携这一理念走出校园，走进济南，以“逐光同行——中央美术学院青年艺术作品邀请展”为名，与公众共享一场关于艺术生命力的对话。本次展览聚焦中央美术学院2025届毕业生作品及往届毕业的优秀青年艺术家的作品，以“微光”“逆光”“高光”三个板块构成展览的叙述要点。意在延续“逐光而行”的精神内核，展现青年艺术家在个人叙事、生态关怀、文化传承等维度的创造与探索。展览呈现了近50件/套青年艺术家的作品，通过他们多样的个人艺术语言，多层次、多维度地呈现“光”在艺术表达中的丰富内涵和独特意义——它既是物理的存在，也是精神的象征性指引；既属于个体感悟，也呼应时代脉动。01 微光—————————————————————微光不必等待黑暗，它自身就是答案。微光往往藏于日常的边缘、心绪的缝隙，却蕴含着初的力量与寂静的启示。参展作品以绘画、影像、装置等作为媒介，通过捕捉那些细腻而隐晦的光芒，呈现青年艺术家对细微事物的敏锐感知与诗意转化。它们或许不张扬，却足够真诚，如同黑暗中悄然点亮的星火，提醒我们：艺术常常始于一道微弱却坚定的光。02 逆光—————————————————————当你背对太阳，你只能看到自己的影子。逆光是一种视角，也是一种态度——它不回避阴影，而是在对比中重新定义清晰与模糊、可见与不可见。这一部分作品多以强烈对比的视觉语言、反思性的主题切入，探讨个体与社会、理想与现实之间的张力。展现青年艺术家在文化语境、社会现实与自我认同之间的思辨与张力，在挑战中寻找突破，在阻力中凝聚力量。03 高光—————————————————————高光不是光，而是物体上最亮的部分。高光是对闪耀时刻与能量凝聚的礼赞。高光既是舞台的焦点，也是生命中的辉煌片段；它既可以来自外界的认可，也源于内在的自省。作品在这一板块中多以鲜明色彩、强烈动势或浓烈情感为特征，传递青年艺术家对生命、理想与未来的坚定信念。它们不仅是技艺的展示，更是精神的彰显。展览现场导览现场“逐光同行”展览落地城投·湖光里，是济南城投集团依托优质艺术资源，对艺术赋能商业空间的全新探索。这一举措不仅为青年艺术作品提供了展示平台，给城市注入充满活力的艺术基因，也为市民提供了高品质的公共文化体验，同时为“艺术如何赋能商业街区”提供了全新范式。“逐光同行——中央美术学院青年艺术作品邀请展·济南站”闭展日期为2025年11月30日。即日起，欢迎广大市民走进城投·湖光里，与青年艺术家一同在光与艺术的交汇中，共赴一场“逐光同行”的美好旅程。张诗琪生生 150×170cm异形框⽊板油画综合材料 2025苑瑗映照 I&II 195×320 cm 布面油画 2023袁欣无畏2024-2 150×200cm 布面油画 2025刘海一无字碑 -1 96 x 250 cm 纸本综合 2025张艺潆不息之境尺寸可变木板丙烯，综合材料 2025苏昱铭园丁 64×124 cm 纸本丙烯 2024陈海军游春图 600×80×60cm 尺寸可变匣钵土 2025董雯霏实验 84×125cm 布⾯油画 2025逐光同行——中央美术学院艺术作品邀请展·济南站展览时间：2025年10月1日—11月30日展览地点：城投·湖光里“方寸·光”艺术中心主办：中央美术学院美术馆、济南城市投资集团有限公司学术指导：中央美术学院承办单位：山东泉逸新商业发展有限公司参展艺术家（按姓氏首字母排序）曹轶陈海军陈家昊陈子涵董雯霏杜英奇范一诺付斌管天淇郭浩郭双郭文静何健恺侯帅胡一葳黄振涵霍启鹏雷雨菲李百舸李木子李湘宜林子豪刘海一刘志琪吕慧瑶罗依涵苗菁菁能尖日农羽瞳秦观伟权玥月时砚亮苏昱铭万珈彤王子阳魏荟青武玥肖雨轩徐钰童闫烨于雨田袁欣苑瑗张捷张诗琪张诗陶张艺潆邹达闻主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠编辑 / 晏宇希
