On the morning of April 9th, the 2024 National Art Fund Communication and Promotion Funding Project "Tomorrow's Prints - Excellent Printmaking Works Touring Exhibition" sponsored by the Lottery Community Chest - China Welfare Lottery and China Sports Lottery and the National Art Fund, sponsored by Yunnan University of the Arts and the International Printmaking Research Institute of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and undertaken by Kunming Museum, Nanjing Jinling Art Museum, Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts Art Museum, Qinghai Art Museum and Guizhou Art Museum, opened at Kunming Museum.
The exhibition brought together more than 200 masterpieces of printmaking from more than 20 countries, which not only presented the new trend and new situation of global printmaking development in recent years, but also showed the latest creative practice and academic exploration achievements in terms of artistic concepts, formal language, expression techniques and media materials.
With the theme of "Tomorrow's Printmaking", the exhibition aims to explore the future development of printmaking in the context of the new era through various forms such as work display and creative seminars.
The works at the exhibition site not only show the superb skills and profound artistic heritage of the artists, but also make bold innovations and experiments in expression, media and materials. Driven by the wave of the digital age, artists are actively embracing new technologies and exploring new possibilities in terms of media materials and ideas. Some of the works skillfully combine the advanced technology of the Internet with the art of printmaking, and endow the printmaking works with richer connotations and expressions through big data processing, image processing and other means. This cross-border integration not only expands the boundaries of printmaking art, but also brings a new aesthetic experience to the viewer.
This traveling exhibition not only provides a platform for Chinese and foreign artists to communicate and display, but also becomes a grand event that gathers sparks of ideas. Artists had in-depth exchanges here, shared their creative experience and unique ideas for printmaking, and collided with countless new creative inspirations.
The holding of the touring exhibition not only built a solid platform for the exchange and development of international printmaking, but also further promoted the popularization and development of printmaking art, and also showed the vitality and infinite possibilities of printmaking art in the context of the new era. On the other hand, the popularization and popularization of printmaking art is still a problem to be solved, and the deepening of traditional printmaking art and the integration and expansion of contemporary culture require the joint efforts of international academic circles and artists. Therefore, "Tomorrow's Printmaking" will continue to grasp the opportunities of the times with an open and inclusive attitude, keep up with the pace of the times, maintain a pioneering attitude, and write a new chapter in printmaking art. Finally, this traveling exhibition will also use printmaking works to tell the thousand-year-old inheritance and glorious development of Chinese civilization, carry forward the spirit of the times, and show the artistic and ideological aesthetic style of contemporary printmaking. In this way, we can get a glimpse of the profound connotation and infinite charm of printmaking art, and feel its positive role in inheriting culture and promoting the spirit.
This tour exhibition is not only a visual feast, but also a feast of collision and integration of ideas. It allows us to see the infinite possibilities and bright future of printmaking art, and also provides us with a new perspective to re-examine and understand printmaking art.
The exhibition will run from April 9 to 19, during which there will also be academic lectures and creative workshops. Art lovers, scholars and artists can visit the exhibition and experience the unique charm and profound connotation of printmaking art.
