“Portuguese Landscapes in the Eyes of Chinese Artists” Opens in Lisbon

In September 2024, the group exhibition “Portuguese Landscapes in the Eyes of Chinese Artists” opened in Lisbon, Portugal. Curated by artist Yanbei, the exhibition features works from Chinese artists: Yanbei, Traviee, Bing Han, Guowei Wang, Zhongping Yu, Yongtao Pan, Jianjun Xu, Zixuan Sophia Zhong, and Ruowei Chen. Through diverse artistic perspectives, the artists explore their interpretations of Portuguese culture, landscapes, and daily life. The exhibition spans figurative and abstract styles, incorporating various media and deeply personal narratives, reflecting their creative evolution in a foreign land.

The opening event welcomed over 100 guests, including art professionals, members of the local Chinese community, and Portuguese cultural enthusiasts. Engaged in lively discussions, attendees shared their personal experiences of living in Portugal and the inspirations drawn from cultural exchange.

“As a universal language, art allows us to communicate beyond words,” said curator Yanbei. “This exhibition is not only a reflection of how Chinese artists perceive Portugal but also a bridge for deeper cultural understanding and dialogue.”
