In the history of Chinese painting, Bada Shanren (Zhu Da, 1626-1705) and the Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou from the mid-Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) shine like twin peaks. Though separated by time, their spirits connect through bold brushstrokes and unconventional visions, each capturing the turbulence and transformation of their eras.
Now you can explore their resonance, clashes and dialogues in terms of artistic style, philosophy and historical context at the new exhibition at Yangzhou Museum.
Dates: Until Aug 18
