When the fervor of fire meets the gentleness of water, and the power of hardness blends with the wisdom of softness, this artistic feast of "Fire and Water in Perfect Harmony" is brought to life, revealing the infinite possibilities of Eastern aesthetics in the contemporary world.
From March 31 to April 14, 2026, artist Zhu Zhenhong created the first outdoor installation "Niè" during his residency at V Exit Art Museum. Employing the technique of his "Niè" series, he blended fragments of coffee cups from Jingdezhen with shells collected from the beaches of Qingdao. Standing five meters tall, this piece is the tallest in his decade-long "Niè" series — like a totem pole of ascending colors.
The new Chengyang space will open on July 1st, dedicated to the convergence of art and life. At the same time, it will launch an artist-in-residence program centered on themes of urban locality and contemporaneity, with core topics including marine culture, textiles, and fashion lifestyle.
Define Happiness: Qingdao Edition officially opened at Gallery Hall No. 3 of V-Exit Art Museum. Curated by a project team led by emerging artist Sofya Postnikova, the exhibition also marks the first community-based investigative interactive project supported by Exit V Art Museum。
