Fish Care: Qi Baishi's World of Life

At the Beijing Fine Art Academy Art Museum, there is a special exhibition of Qi Baishi's paintings titled "Fish Care: Qi Baishi's World of Life". The exhibition uses role-playing to guide the audience to become a fish in Qi Baishi's paintings, presenting Qi Baishi's artistic world from a new perspective and form. The audience can jump into the Xiangjiang River and swim to the "ordinary people's home" in Xingdou Pond, feeling Qi Baishi's childhood memories of "happy things now remembered by Peiling"; or come to Qi Baishi's desk and feel the natural interest of "seeing both form and spirit" in the ups and downs of ink and brush; or find a touch of moonlight in Beiping and feel the innocence and loveliness of "the painter keeps the truth" after "winning the snow on the temples and beard". The audience can experience Qi Baishi's artistic life and watch the fish in the pond with him. Every fish that comes here cares, and every fish's memory adds endless warmth and sincerity to this dream that has been delayed for a hundred years. The exhibition interprets Qi Baishi's artistic world from a new perspective, not only showing the essence and charm of Qi Baishi's art, but also leading the audience into a dialogue that transcends time and space and culture.

As a master in the history of modern Chinese painting, Qi Baishi has won the love and admiration of countless audiences with his unique brush and ink charm, profound cultural heritage, and strong sense of life. In his paintings, whether flowers, birds, fish, insects, landscapes, or figures, they all exude a love for life and a reverence for nature, showing an artistic world full of life and harmony.
