: Exhibition Guide | Step into "Rising At Dawn" And Explore The "Central Axis" Principle Running Through Beijing

2025-10-11

"Rising At Dawn: Beijing-Themed Art Works from CAFA Art Museum Collection" focuses on the artistic narration of Beijing's urban image in the history of modern and contemporary Chinese art. By systematically sorting out Beijing-themed artworks in the collection of the CAFA Art Museum and inviting a number of artists to exhibit their fine and representative works, it in-depth explores the interactive relationship between artistic creation and social context in different historical periods.With "Morning Rise", "Vitality", "Renewal" and "Choosing the Center" as its narrative threads, the exhibition constructs an artistic dialogue field that transcends time and space: on the one hand, it presents the stylistic evolution of artists from different generations in their depiction of urban landscapes and interpretation of humanistic spirit; on the other hand, it focuses on artists' continuous exploration of urban themes and conceptual innovation in the contemporary context.Choosing the Center | 4th SectionBeijing's Central Axis is like a wordless historical book engraved on the city, with its grand narrative extending north-south, it interprets the Oriental wisdom of "choosing the center" in architecture. Artists reinterpret this temporal and spatial axis through diverse visual languages—not only to capture the sense of ritual that connects the past and the present, but more importantly, to transform the traditional philosophical thought of "achieving harmony through balance" into a tangible visual experience.萧淑芳，《北海溜冰》，1935年，46cm×30cm，布面油彩Ai Zhongxin, Remaining Snow on the Forbidden City, 1947, 38cm × 70cm, Oil on Wood PanelRemaining Snow on the Forbidden City is a lyrical sketch created by Ai Zhongxin after he began teaching at the Beiping School of Art, where he was deeply impressed by the vastness of snowscapes in northern China. The painting adopts an extended horizontal composition, resembling a miniature panoramic scroll. Although the scene depicted is in the depths of winter, the overall color palette exudes a subtle, rippling warmth. Ai Zhongxin was a representative artist of Chinese realistic oil painting in the 20th century. Xu Beihong highly praised his oil paintings for possessing "the brushwork charm of traditional Chinese painting." This work embodies the artist’s artistic achievements in integrating Chinese and Western artistic traditions and exploring native artistic conception.矢崎千代二 C. Yazaki，《北平午门》，20世纪，23.7×31cm，纸本色粉Meridian Gate of Beiping depicts the solemn outline and Oriental charm of this iconic ancient building in Beijing through delicate pastels. Under the artist’s brush, the majestic momentum of the Meridian Gate presents a unique "Eastern style." The work features warm colors with rich layers—it not only adopts the light and shadow treatment of Western realism but also incorporates the implicit artistic conception of Eastern painting. Chiyoji Yazaki was a renowned Japanese pastel artist. He settled in Beijing in 1938 and resided there until his passing in 1947. He donated all 1,008 pastel works he created in his lifetime to the education sector and was later hired by Xu Beihong as a lecturer at the National Beiping School of Art. The pastel-on-paper works with Beijing themes exhibited this time embody the affection this foreign artist held for the ancient city.文金扬，《前门、春节》，1955年，43cm×56.5cm，木板油画杨澧，《天安门西侧》，20世纪50年代，15cm×26.5cm，纸本水彩谭权书，《天安门》，1958年，25.5cm×35.5cm，木版单色邓华、傅真，《琴景》，2011年—2012年，3分28秒，影像Qin and Scene adopts a perspective overlooking the panoramic view of the Forbidden City from Jingshan Mountain, poetically combining the sound of guqin performance with the images of the ancient imperial capital. Every time the artist tightens the guqin’s tuning pegs to raise the pitch, the images of the Forbidden City jump and change accordingly; when the guqin reaches its highest pitch, the images of the palaces vanish suddenly at the moment the strings snap. Deng Hua and Fu Zhen have collaborated on creative works since 2008, focusing on the exploration of individual identity and collective memory. The guqin, ranking first among the four arts 'namely guqin, go, calligraphy, and painting' of the Chinese Scholar, is regarded as a symbol of elegance and virtue. Through the dialogue between the guqin and the Forbidden City, the work presents the tenacious vitality of traditional culture and reveals the complex and subtle relationship between traditional culture and contemporary society.王琦，《故宫楼角》，1985年，42cm×28cm，木版单色宋红雨，《北京胜境全景》，1992年199.5cm×199.5cm，布面油彩广军，《风情》，2007年，70cm×65cm，丝网套色Scenery and Atmosphere presents highly condensed imagery, vividly depicting a Beijing swallow kite floating in the blue sky above the Palace Museum. The work's colors and lines are concise and succinct yet brim with tension—echoing Guang Jun's consistent artistic style: relaxed and witty, achieving much with little, and rich in ideological connotation. Since the late 1970s, Guang Jun has been participating in and organizing various printmaking activities, and he is a pioneer of screen printing creation in China. Meanwhile, he is also an oil painter. Regardless of the form of artistic creation, his works integrate his personal ideals and reflections on humanity, exuding a sense of freedom, ease, and thought-provoking charm.Featured Artist: Zhou Jirong | 4th SectionZhou Jirong was born in Guizhou Province in 1962. He graduated from the Printmaking Department of the China Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1987 and pursued advanced studies at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando (Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando) in Spain in 1996. Currently, he serves as Associate Professor and Deputy Director of the Printmaking Department at CAFA, Head of the 2nd Studio of the Printmaking Department, and a member of the China Artists Association.His artistic practice explores the aesthetic significance of various printmaking impressions. Using a unique printmaking language, he depicts both the new and old aspects of Beijing, which is filled with humanistic concern.Zhou Jirong’s Landscape Series continues his long-standing focus on urban themes. Taking Beijing’s Central Axis as a starting point, this series unfolds reflections on Beijing—a city with profound historical deposits, yet in the midst of dramatic transformation. The series features over a dozen iconic and authoritative buildings from different eras along the Central Axis. When the Bird’s Nest, the Palace Museum, and the Arrow Tower are placed in juxtaposition, they seem to be detached from the bustle of the present moment and situated within the dimension of history. This grants viewers a calm sense of distance, as if looking back on the present from the future in the long river of time.Zhou Jirong, Landscape – Temple of Heaven, 2013, 60cm × 75cm, Comprehensive Printmaking周吉荣，《景观——鼓楼》，2013年，75cm×60cm，综合版画周吉荣，《景观——碑》，2013年，60cm×75cm，综合版画The Beijing Cultural and Art Fund is a public welfare fund initiated and established by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism. It focuses on providing support in three key areas: stage art creation, cultural communication and exchange, and art talent cultivation. The fund accepts applications from the public, its funding process is subject to social supervision, and the outcomes of its funded projects are shared with the public. This maximizes the enthusiasm of social forces to participate in cultural development, builds an open, equal, public, and transparent art funding system, and fully leverages the demonstration and leading role of Beijing as a national cultural center.2024 Funding Project of Beijing Cultural and Art FundRising At Dawn—Beijing-Themed Artworks from CAFA Art Museum CollectionExhibition Dates: September 18 – October 19, 2025Venue: 3A and 4th Floor Exhibition Hall , CAFA Art MuseumHost: Central Academy of Fine ArtsCo-organizer: CAFA Art MuseumSupporter: Office of Research Administration, Central Academy of Fine ArtsChief Editor / He Yisha Editor / Du Yinzhu

: CAFAM Academic Season | Retrospective Lecture Forum "Cultivation and Exploration"

2025-10-09

Guest group photoForumIntroductionOn June 21, the forum 'Cultivation and Exploration: An Overview Of The Study and Current Status of The CAFA Art Museum Collection' was held at CAFA Art Museum.As part of the series of activities for the 2025 CAFAM Academic Season, the forum, themed 'Cultivation and Exploration', focuses on academic research, exhibition practices, and preservation status of museum collections. It aims to deeply explore the historical context, academic value, and contemporary significance of the museum's art collection. Taking the classic works on display in the museum's permanent exhibitions and the logic of collection building as its main body, the forum includes recent academic research achievement on these collections. It seeks to introduce the rich art collection of CAFA Art Museum to all sectors of society through this open academic exchange platform, promoting deeper research and broader dissemination of the collections. The forum has invited experts who have been deeply engaged in collection research in recent years to deliver keynote speeches. These experts have achieved much in individual case analysis of collections, exhibition planning, and restoration and preservation of collections. Divided into two sessions, 'History and Legacy' and 'Refinement and Renewal', the forum focuses respectively on 'Chinese Ancient Art' and 'Chinese Modern and Contemporary Fine Arts'. It covers overviews of different types of collections, introductions to representative works, and processes of collection maintenance, including cultural relics from art archaeology, ancient calligraphy and painting, ceramic art, religious art, modern oil paintings, and contemporary ink wash paintings. Notably, the content of this forum will also serve as important material for the Young Scholars Forum in the second half of the year.Director Jin Jun of CAFA Art Museum delivered a speechAt the beginning of the forum, Director Jin Jun of the museum delivered a speech on behalf of the art museum. He mentioned that this year, taking the opening of the second-floor collection exhibition as an opportunity, the 2025 "CAFAM Academic Series" was officially launched. The previously held International Art Museum Summit and the University Art Museum Alliance Conference have laid a high-standard foundation for the Academic Season, focusing on industry development and aesthetic education innovation. As a key part of the Academic Season, this forum will deeply explore the academic value and practical paths of the collection of CAFA Art Museum, which is of great significance. Jin Jun introduced that since its establishment, CAFA Art Museum has always been committed to art collection and academic research. Today, with nearly 30,000 pieces of collections spanning ancient and modern times, they are not only witnesses to the development of art but also important resources for exploring cultural lineages. Faced with the challenges of digitalization and globalization in global art museums, the museum hopes to build a bridge between academia and the public through the Academic Season, promoting collections from collection and research towards sharing.First Half: History and LegacyThe first half was hosted by Zhang Peng, a professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Art Studies, Director of the Editorial Department of the Academic Journal, and Deputy Director of the Collaborative Innovation Center for Silk Road Art Studies.Gao Gao, Deputy Director of CAFA Art Museum, made a speechGao Gao systematically introduced the development history and work achievements of the art museum. The Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum is a professional, international modern art museum integrating academic research, exhibition display, collection and restoration, and public education functions. It currently has nearly 30,000 collections. Its collection has been continuously enriched since the establishment of the Beijing Art School in 1918, gradually forming a complete sequence covering ancient, modern, and contemporary periods. Over the years, the museum has carried out systematic practical work such as exhibitions, publications, and restorations around its collections, with the collection display starting in 2024 being a representative phase achievement. These efforts fully reflect the unique value and responsibility of the museum as a research-oriented institution in the public cultural system, and also keep the collections constantly "vitalized", forming an organic cycle from "collection" to "research", "display", and then to "public sharing".Geng Shuo, Deputy Director of the Department of Cultural Heritage Studies, School of Humanities, and Deputy Director of the Research Center for Art Archaeology, Central Academy of Fine Arts, delivered a speech.Taking the collection's exhibited bronze mirrors and terracotta figurines as a starting point, such as the Han Dynasty 'Xi Wangmu Pounding Medicine' image mirror and 'Hunting and Harvesting' image brick, as well as Tang Dynasty polychrome music and dance figurines, Geng Shuo introduced the basic situation, sources, and key works of such collections from the perspective of art archaeology. This showcased the unique expressive forms and rich ideological connotations of ancient Chinese art in fields such as utensils, images, and sculpture.Tian Shuai, Professor of Beijing Normal University and Deputy Curator of the Cultural Relics Museum of Beijing Normal University, delivered a speechTian Shuai focused on the representative ceramic artifacts in the museum's collection. Taking the fine pieces on display—such as the celadon wares of the Longquan Kiln from the Song and Ming dynasties, the polychrome porcelains of the Kangxi reign in the Qing dynasty, and the red-glazed plates of the Yongzheng reign in the Qing dynasty—as examples, he introduced the basic status and origins of this type of collection. These ceramics come in a variety of categories, including celadon, white porcelain, and blue-and-white porcelain. Spanning a thousand years and covering a complete system of kilns, they systematically present the development process and artistic forms of ancient Chinese ceramic craftsmanship.Professor Huang Xiaofeng, Dean of the School of Humanities at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, made a speechHuang Xiaofeng introduced the basic situation of the art museum's collection of calligraphy and painting, as well as recent exhibition and research achievements, using high-quality ancient calligraphy and painting works on display, such as Ren Bynian's 'Xingqi Tu of Hengyun Shanmin' and Bada Shanren's 'Ink Lotus Diagram'. The collection of ancient calligraphy and painting by the Central Academy of Fine Arts began during the period of Beiping Art College. During the late 1950s when Xu Beihong served as the president, it started large-scale acquisitions and acceptance of donations. To date, including those from the affiliated middle school, the collection exceeds 2,000 pieces, mainly featuring Ming and Qing dynasty paintings, with some Song and Yuan dynasty paintings, Northern and Southern Dynasties, and Tang dynasty scriptural copies. In addition to works by renowned artists, some genre paintings and portrait paintings also reflect the possibility of the collection's initial service to teaching and the shift towards research in the discipline of art history.Zheng Yi, Professor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, delivered a speech.Zheng Yi gave an introduction focusing on the religious cultural relics in the collection, with special emphasis on 7 selected bronze statues of Tibetan Buddhism in the Ming and Qing dynasty styles displayed in the exhibition. These include two solemn statues of Sakyamuni, four elegant and graceful statues of Tara, and one statue of Mahasaraswati adorned with numerous ritual implements. He provided a detailed account of the basic information about these statues and their representative works, and explained that the themes and styles of these statues reflect the Tibetan Buddhist art trends led by the imperial courts of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Although it is difficult to confirm that they were supervised and crafted by the imperial workshops, their shapes and craftsmanship are quite remarkable. The Buddhist statues demonstrate diverse cultural features, and further embody the profound and far-reaching Chinese stories in their aesthetic and conceptual connotations.Second Half: Sublimation and RenewalThe second half was hosted by Liu Xiyan, Director of the Curatorial and Research Department at the CAFA Art MuseumProfessor Cao Qinghui of the Central Academy of Fine Arts made a speechCao Qinghui focused on the museum's collection of over a thousand modern oil painting treasures. Starting from works by early overseas-educated painters—such as Li Shutong's Semi-Nude Female Portrait (1909) and Wu Fading's Portrait of a Woman in Banner Dress—moving on to works by Soviet-educated artists like Li Tianxiang and Luo Gongliu after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and then to exploratory works by senior, middle-aged, and young academic artists since the reform and opening-up, he systematically sorted out the sources of the collection (including teacher donations, exhibition acquisitions, and outstanding works by graduates). He outlined the interactive trajectory between the century-long development of Chinese oil painting and academic education, demonstrated the core role of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and its predecessors in oil painting teaching, creation, and talent cultivation, as well as the history of Chinese social changes and the evolution of artistic language reflected behind this.Xu Yan, Oil Painting Restorer at the CAFA Art Museum, delivered a speechTaking the restoration of Li Shutong's Semi-Nude Female Portrait and Wu Fading's Seashore as examples, Xu Yan gave an in-depth introduction to the inspection and restoration work. After the 2012 authentication seminar for Semi-Nude Female Portrait, the restoration studio confirmed the work's creation date and authenticity through technical analysis, laying the foundation for its restoration. As for Seashore, it was able to be exhibited long-term in this collection exhibition after restoration. He emphasized that oil painting restoration work not only provides empirical evidence for building a research-oriented conservation system, but also holds great significance for the study of early 20th-century Chinese oil painting art.Yu Yang, Professor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Director of the Scientific Research Department, and Director of the Advanced Innovation Center for Visual Arts, delivered a speechTaking the fine modern and contemporary ink wash works on display—such as Xu Beihong’s Galloping Horses and Fu Baoshi’s Scroll of Landscapes—as a thread, Yu Yang analyzed the origin and historical evolution of the museum’s collection of modern and contemporary ink wash art, and expounded on its artistic characteristics and documentary value. The collection includes over 2,000 Chinese painting and calligraphy works from more than a century. It not only covers works by renowned artists from the early history of CAFA and the tradition of Chinese painting teaching at the academy since 1949, but also includes works from the Beijing art circle and other regional painting schools in the 20th century. It can be called an epitome of the context of calligraphy and painting from both northern and southern regions over the past century, and also a vivid and intuitive documentary and image archive of the history of 20th-century Chinese art education.Dou Tianwei, Paper-based Artwork Restorer at the CAFA Art Museum, delivered a speechTaking the restoration of Zheng Banqiao’s Calligraphy and Qi Baishi’s Morning Glories as examples, Dou Tianwei detailed the specific process of paper-based artwork restoration. He pointed out that restoration is an essential behind-the-scenes work in a museum’s collection management and exhibition. As a bridge connecting history to the present and original works to the audience, it not only concerns the physical integrity of the collections but also embodies respect for the continuity of cultural heritage. Regarding issues such as damage and fading that easily occur in paper-based collections due to the fragility of their material, professional methods including scientific inspection, cleaning treatment, structural reinforcement, and partial supplementation can be adopted. These methods, based on respecting the original condition of the works, help restore their original appearance, slow down deterioration, and ensure the quality of exhibition displays.Li Yaochen, Director of the Collection Department at the CAFA Art Museum, delivered a speechLi Yaochen gave an introduction focusing on the collection of individual artist cases. He expounded on the emphasis placed by the CAFA Art Museum on the construction of individual case sequences in its collection acquisition work since the museum's establishment, as well as the practices of in-depth interpretation and exploration of the value of individual case collections through exhibitions, publications, research, and other means.

: 不容忽视的存在 | 许幸之的文学艺术

2025-10-08

“雄歌一曲献中华——许幸之艺术成就回顾展”展览现场在20世纪中国文艺史上，许幸之是一个不容忽视的突出存在，而文学，是许幸之最早也是最持久的表达方式：17岁便以新诗登上《觉悟》副刊，1924年又以小说《海涯》刊于《东方杂志》，正式迈入新文学行列。他的诗既有《牧歌》式的柔情哀思，也有《中国的母亲》《春雷》这类抗战时期鼓舞人心的作品和《不平等的列车》《大板井》这样揭示现实与苦难的史诗长章。抒情与叙事并进，语言简洁，情感真挚。他是将左翼理想融入诗意抒写的实践者，也是一位用文字回应时代的艺术家。他创作的《铁蹄下的歌女》原为一首抗战诗，后经由聂耳谱曲，成为《风云儿女》中的经典插曲。在散文方面，《鹿的父亲》《乡中情札》则在家国记忆与个人追思之间流露出真挚与沉静。许幸之曾经这样表示：“我酝酿我的诗/像蜜蜂酝酿它的蜜/吮吸花的心/接吻花的唇/我要/我的诗/如同蜜蜂一般甜蜜/酿出甘美而馥郁的诗情”，这是他毕生文学追求的真实写照。许幸之在创造社活跃多年，亦为左翼文艺的积极倡导者，始终在抒写个人、关怀社会与探索艺术表达之间寻找平衡。简言之，许幸之以他数十年坚持不懈的新文学创作实践，积极参与了中国新文学的建构。他的不少作品又有自己的风格和追求，是中国左翼文学中不可多得的优秀之作。梳理中国左翼文学的文学遗产，许幸之的诸多建树不可或缺。——陈子善华东师范大学教授许幸之小说、散文合集《归来》（巴金选编的《文学小丛刊第二集》）封面，文化生活出版社，1940年许幸之诗集《诗歌时代》封面，海石书店，1941年许幸之诗集《万里长城》封面，上海联合出版社，1945年许幸之诗集《扬子江》封面，上海联合出版社，1945年《许幸之诗集》封面，郑正主编，香港天马图书有限公司，2004年| 艺术家简介 |百年辉煌·中央美术学院艺术名家雄歌一曲献中华——许幸之艺术成就回顾展展览时间：2025年9月18日—10月19日展览地点：中央美术学院美术馆3层B展厅主办单位：中国美术家协会、中央美术学院承办单位：中央美术学院党委宣传部、中央美术学院校史研究中心、中央美术学院美术馆、中央美术学院人文学院、中央美术学院油画系支持单位：中国人民抗日战争纪念馆、中国电影家协会、中国电影博物馆展览鸣谢：中国美术馆、龙美术馆、泰康保险集团股份有限公司、之已基金会、王薇、施俊兆、黄俊、董瑞主编 / 何一沙责编 / 杜隐珠

: CAFAM Salon Preview | Post-Carbon Future: The Civilization Memory Of Ice And Fire

2025-10-07

The form of energy shapes the hierarchy and rhythm of civilization. The steam engine ignited the Industrial Revolution, reshaping the pulse of cities and rural areas; coal and oil supported globalization and informatization, building industrial networks spanning continents. Today, solar energy is integrated into buildings and urban life in a distributed manner; the energy upgrade from controlled nuclear fusion also heralds the next transformation of civilization. Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev once proposed that the development of civilization can be measured by the total amount of usable energy. Each energy leap not only drives progress in productivity but also rewrites social structures and the form of civilization, while reflecting a civilization's management of entropy—how to guide disordered energy into usable order is the key to a civilization's upgrade.Traces of early civilizations are stored in matter: bubbles, tiny particles, and microorganisms trapped in ice cores record millions of years of Earth's meteorological history. As the Industrial Revolution and information technology develop, the memories preserved in ice sheets will present new geological evidence. Fire, on the other hand, carries another form of civilizational memory: Edison's 'Black Maria'—the film darkroom—where negatives are washed with sunlight, reorganizing energy on nitrate-based film to allow images to flow. As Nadia Bozak writes in 'The Cinematic Footprint': 'Every frame of film is our civilization's mastery over the sun, presented through fossilized solar fire—in the form of carbon—that we have captured, refined, and appropriately utilized.'This event, titled 'Post-Carbon Future: The Civilization Memory of Ice and Fire', focuses on the changes in the civilization level and pace during the energy transition, echoing the future civilization imagination presented by controlled nuclear fusion in the exhibition 'Energy and Civilization — Science & Art · Fusion Future'. The exhibition takes multiple installations as its core, breaking down the boundaries between science and art, transforming nuclear fusion principles into intuitive sensory experiences. At the same time, this event is also the concluding act of the 'Post-Carbon: The Political Economy of Light and Heat' screening and forum series. The 'Post-Carbon' series has been presented in multiple cities including Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, responding to the impact of solar energy and southern heatwaves on landscapes, technology, and visual culture.This forum will screen the film 'In the Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace' and invite Christoph Oeschger, the Swiss artist who created the film, Zheng Jun, a science and cultural writer, and Liu Yongmou, a professor of philosophy at Renmin University, to jointly explore the future society and civilization forms after energy transition from three dimensions: art, science fiction, and philosophy. Event Schedule Time: October 8, 2025 (Wednesday) 14:00--16:00Theme: 'Post-Carbon Future: Civilization's Memory of Ice and Fire' Host: Chen Yu (scholar in design theory, young curator, new media artist, co-curator of 'Post-Carbon') Film Screening: 'In the Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace'; by Swiss artist Christoph Oeschger, 13 minutes 09 secondsGuest Speakers: Zheng Jun (science and culture writer, futurist) Christoph Oeschger (Swiss artist) Liu Yongmou (Wu Yuzhang Chair Professor at Renmin University) Roundtable Guests: Cai Yixuan (curator, Black Void artist, 'Post-Carbon' curator)Scan the QR code to book a spotLimited spots available First come, first served Film Introduction In the Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace，Christoph Oeschger，Switzerland，13’09As Arctic sea ice retreats, previously inaccessible areas are opening up for resource extraction and territorial claims. The Arctic is transforming from a romanticized wilderness into a arena of interests in technology, economics, and geopolitics. The film 'In Ice, Everything Leaves a Trace' presents these transformations from a poetic perspective, revealing what was originally invisible. It is the first outcome of a collaborative research project initiated by writer Gianna Molinari and artist Christoph Oeschger in Greenland. There, they realized that the Arctic also exists elsewhere—in pipelines, microscopes, electronic devices, and maps, flowing through them. Those wildlands that still remain untouched in our imagination have now become stages for global power and economic ambition. Sharing Guest Liu Yongmou Wu Yuzhang Chair Professor at Renmin University of China, Second-Class Professor and Doctoral Supervisor at the School of Philosophy, Researcher at the Institute for Artificial Intelligence Governance and the National Development and Strategy Institute of Renmin University of China, and Visiting Professor at Gansu Province's Feitian Scholar Program. His main research areas include philosophy of science and technology, and science, technology and society. He has recently published works such as 'The World After the Intelligent Revolution', 'A General Theory of Technological Governance', 'The Metaverse Trap', and 'The Rebellion of Technology'. He has published more than 210 academic papers in Chinese and foreign languages, and has won awards such as the National Excellent Doctoral Thesis Award, the Wu Yuzhang Award, and served as the principal investigator of major projects of the National Social Science Fund.Sharing Theme: 'Energy Leap, Civilizational Cliff and Future Humans'Christoph OeschgerPhotographer, filmmaker, artist, and publisher.
