Pearl Art Museum 🚉Transportation guide: Get off at Longbai Xincun Station on Line 10, and you can reach Aegean Shopping Park B2 through the passage of Exit 3. The elevator in the mall goes directly to the 8th floor Pearl Art Museum. ✅Exhibition Information Exhibition Name: Back to Nature Exhibition Dates: July 1, 2023—October 7, 2023 Visiting Hours: Closed on Mondays; Tuesday to Thursday 10:00-19:00 (entry stops at 18:00); Friday to Sunday 10:00-22:00 (entry stops at 21:00) Exhibition Introduction The exhibition invites 26 outstanding artists from 10 countries and regions around the world, displaying over 100 representative and cutting-edge works with the theme of colorful nature, including paintings, installations, sculptures, videos, photography, performance art, and other diverse media. The exhibition is divided into four chapters: "Humans and Landscape," "Journey," "Narrative Painting," and "Question and Exploration." The presented works include personalized artistic reproductions and creations of the natural motif, profound inquiries and reflections on environmental issues, and unique expressions of a "non-anthropocentric view of nature." My Reflections My living environment is far from fine arts, and I vaguely like some works, but I can't explain why This time some exhibits were accompanied by annotations, and the combination of text and exhibits allowed for more understanding and reflection. Images 5 and 6 are the works that touched me, and I recorded the annotations next to them to share with everyone. Image 5 is the work of Dong Xiaochi. Starting from a fallen leaf in his favorite Qiu Garden, he tells a story of a different world governed by different rules, a life and its dreams not dominated by materialism. Deeply rooted in the style of traditional landscape painting, yet following a contemporary personalized path, he strives to expand the depth of time and the breadth of space through his brush journey, allowing the shapes of trees and mountains to merge with abstraction, to the point where recognizable forms also transform into abstraction, opening up a space for imagination. Here, the effect of space is similar to the 'gentle breath of inhalation and exhalation' (Cheng Baoyi's words), linking the micro and macro worlds together. Images 6 are two pieces from the 'Come With Me' series by British artist Ellie Davies. She believes that for thousands of years, Britain's forests have been shaped by the progress of human civilization, turned into ancient woodlands, timber forests, wildlife reserves, and outstanding natural beauty areas. Therefore, forests represent the fusion of nature, culture, and human activity. Forests are powerful symbols in folklore, fairy tales, and myths, enchanting and magical places, as well as dangerous and mysterious ones. Against this backdrop, her works explore how identity is shaped by the 'landscape' in which we live and grow. She engages in various temporary and non-invasive interventions in the forest, such as building 'pools of light' on the forest floor and 'dyeing' with paint and wool, creating a space between reality and fantasy, hoping to encourage viewers to reassess how their relationship with the landscape is formed, to what extent it is a product of cultural heritage or personal experience, and how this contributes to the formation of our own identities. Museum Easter Egg The Pearl Art Museum is known as 'a museum with a bookstore,' and the stairs from the 8th floor museum exit lead directly to the 7th floor bookstore, which is spacious and bright, eliciting admiration . See image 7. "Back to Nature" is a call and expectation, inviting everyone to step into nature and pay attention to it.

Mingzhu Art Museum Every museum has its own characteristics, "a museum with a bookstore" is the most beautiful label of Mingzhu Art Museum. 📍Detailed address: Mingzhu Art Museum, 8th floor, Aegean Shopping Park, No.1588 Wuzhong Road, Minhang District, Shanghai 🚉Transportation strategy: Get off at Longbai Xincun Station of Line 10, you can reach Aegean Shopping Park B2 Shanghai Aegean Shopping Park through the passage of Exit 3, and you can directly reach the 8th floor of Mingzhu Art Museum in the elevator in the mall. 🌟Highlights: Tadao Ando was invited to participate in the design. He deliberately left a blank space on the 7th and 8th floors of the Aegean Shopping Park for the "art reading" art and literature space. From the 8th floor exit of the museum, you can go to the bookstore on the 7th floor, see Figure 5. The bookstore is open and bright. Egg-shaped space. See Figure 2 model. In Tadao Ando's view, "egg" signifies rebirth and represents return. Its internal space often forms a small universe. The architect believes that the power to lead the future can grow from this "egg", and continuously convey the vigorous growth message of Shanghai to the world. The design inspiration for the logo of Mingzhu Art Museum also comes from this. Since the "Nakanoshima Urban Dome" project in Japan in 1988, the "egg" shaped space has become one of the most important architectural metaphor techniques in Tadao Ando's design. The long scroll opposite the hall model. Opposite the model, a 16-meter long scroll drawn by Tadao Ando himself is displayed, recording the origin, formation and birth of the more than 4,000 square meters "space of light". Shanghai Mingzhu Art Museum is a museum facing the 21st century, and we hope that every visitor can have a wonderful visit experience!
