“Waiting for Qin Feng,” a solo exhibition of work by Chinese ink artist Qin Feng, promotes the importance of inclusivity and cultural interaction as a result of the greater understanding of our contemporary civilization through open dialogue.

The exhibition will be presented in collaboration with the Fondazione Giorgio Cini and is curated by Achille Bonito Oliva and Ambassador Umberto Vattani. It will unfold as a multi-faceted dialogue between European Renaissance art and contemporary Chinese art and it will be exhibited not only paintings, but also an installation of traditional Chinese Jingdezhen porcelain.

The exhibition “Waiting for Qin Feng” will be installed in three locations including the former Monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore, now home to the Fondazione Giorgio Cini (the first contemporary Chinese art installation), the Armenian Catholic Monastery on San Lazzaro Island and Venice International University (VIU) on San Servolo Island.

The Vernissage will be on 19 May at 18:00 at the former Monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore.
