The national-level new museum in Guangzhou is now open!

The new museum is located near the Guangzhou Tower, and its design resembles a blooming kapok flower, which is the hero flower of Guangzhou. It has been half a month since the museum opened, and the reservation is still full, making it very difficult to book. The design of the new museum is particularly beautiful, and it is very photogenic. The exhibition spans five floors. As you walk up from the first floor, you can clearly see the changes in Chinese painting. From the works of famous painters during the Yuan and Song periods (the peak of traditional Chinese painting), to the Ming and Qing periods (when Guangzhou was the only foreign trade port) began to come into contact with Western art, integrating perspective, color contrast, etc. into traditional Chinese painting, to the use of oil painting materials during the Republic of China, the treatment of character expressions and details, and then to modern paintings with distinctive characteristics of the times, the characteristics and development of Chinese painting at different periods are clearly visible. There is also a Lingnan special exhibition that left a deep impression on me, with paintings of mountains, stones, flowers and birds, and animals from the perspective of Lingnan people. The brushwork is delicate and the colors are elegant, which is quite unique. In addition, there is a special exhibition co-hosted with the Shanghai Art Museum, which displays many very precious paintings, a highly interactive digital exhibition hall, and a sculpture exhibition on the top floor, which is well worth the trip. The new museum exhibits a lot of paintings, probably more than a thousand, and it takes a whole day to see them all. I plan to go several times. The new museum has exhibited treasures of the town, such as Wen Tong's 'Ink Bamboo Picture', Dai Jin's 'Mountain High and Long Water Picture Scroll', etc., which are very precious. I don't know if they will be exhibited in the future, so if you have time, you should go as soon as possible. In order to protect the paintings, many museums will add a glass cover to the paintings, and the new museum is no exception. What's different about the new museum is that the clarity of the glass is high and the reflection is low, making it clearer and more comfortable to watch. For a layman like me, it can be said that there is no impact at all. I also encountered someone in the museum using a telescope to observe the details of the paintings. I learned a lot! I will arrange it next time too! 🔸Opening hours: Closed on Mondays, open from 9:00 to 17:00 from Tuesday to Sunday 🔸Reservation guide: WeChat Mini Program Guangzhou Art Museum (Guangzhou Art Museum) 🔸Reservation time: You can book up to seven days in advance, and tickets are available from 8:00 in the morning.
