"The 'Fashion 100' Project Conclusion Exhibition & Series of Shows" Is About To Debut At The CAFA Art Museum

2026-03-19

The "Fashion 100" Project under the "Youth Partner Program" of the Chinese Artists Association, guided by the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, hosted by the Chinese Artists Association, co-organized by the Fine Arts Art Center of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles and Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, and assisted by the Fashion Design Art Committee of the Chinese Artists Association, the Art Museum of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and the China Fashion Association, is about to usher in the grand release of its core achievements. As a youth design talent development initiative, this marks a significant move by the Chinese Artists Association to integrate fashion design into its core talent development system for the first time. Adhering to the core tenet of "Academics First, Independent Thinking, Innovation Leadership", the project is committed to discovering and fostering a group of leading Chinese fashion design talents with aesthetic confidence, cultural soft power and academic distinctiveness.Since the official launch of the project in April 2025, "Fashion 100" has gathered young design talents from 59 key universities and renowned design institutions across the country. One hundred finalist designers, rigorously selected from 390 applications, have participated in intensive training and on-site research covering five major modules, including national narrative, cultural root-seeking, business logic, and cutting-edge technology. Subsequently, the jury panel composed of academic leaders from prestigious universities and senior industry experts conducted multiple rounds of rigorous reviews of the participants' works. Following a comprehensive evaluation of creativity, craftsmanship, styling, and stage effects, the outstanding works that have finally stood out are about to present a substantial response to the public.At 20:20 on March 22, 2026, as a key part of the official schedule of China Fashion Week, the presentation and show for the conclusion of the first "Fashion 100" under the "Youth Partner Program" of the Chinese Artists Association will officially kick off at the CAFA Art Museum. Breaking away from a single release model, this event adopts a deep integration of a dynamic opening gala show and a static exhibition, comprehensively and three-dimensionally presenting the exploration context of young designers. With the core of exploring the origin of creation and inheriting cultural genes, the participating works deeply root in the tradition of Chinese aesthetics, while connecting with international frontiers with an open vision, subtly interweaving Oriental implications and avant-garde expressions.What is particularly worth anticipating is the bold innovation in venue planning and audience experience for this exhibition. Leveraging the unique architectural space of the CAFA Art Museum, the show venue has been elaborately constructed into a multi-dimensional three-dimensional structure. In contrast to the traditional runway, the three-dimensional venue provides models with a deeper and more extended walking path, creating a fascinating cross-space dialogue between the dynamic fashion presentation and the surrounding static exhibits. Following this deeply layered path, the audience will be immersed in the artistic space with its staggered layout, experiencing every breakthrough in the cutting, fabrics, and craftsmanship of the garments.The future of Chinese fashion is being nurtured in the solid academic accumulation and fearless innovative practices of the younger generation. We sincerely invite faculty, students, and friends from all walks of life to visit the event, wandering through the extensive static exhibition areas and the interlaced three-dimensional runway space.On the evening of March 22, let's meet at the CAFA Art Museum,and witness the brilliant blooming of China's youngfashion design forces in the new era.Amber Work Title: Dust & LightHou RuoyiWork Title: Needles Across the SeaHuang Siyun Work Title: The Phygital Rhythm of TimeJiang Xiaoxi Work Title: Photosynthesis (The green symphony of light) Schedule of the series of shows March 28, 17:10 "New Era Young Art Talent Development Program – Fashion 100" Conclusion Achievement Report Exhibition & Outstanding Student Works Show, Session 1April 5, 16:00 "New Era Young Art Talent Development Program – Fashion 100" Conclusion Achievement Report Exhibition & Outstanding Student Works Show, Session 2April 11, 16:00 "New Era Young Art Talent Development Program – Fashion 100" Conclusion Achievement Report Exhibition & Outstanding Student Works Show, Session 3April 18, 16:00 "New Era Young Art Talent Development Program – Fashion 100" Conclusion Achievement Report Exhibition & Outstanding Student Works Show, Session 4April 19, 16:00 "New Era Young Art Talent Development Program – Fashion 100" Conclusion Achievement Report Exhibition & Outstanding Student Works Show, Session 5Xie MengdiWork Title: The Rising Wind and Water SeriesYu Shi、Guo Yong Work Title: Sense of PresenceWei Qinwen Work Title: Between the StrokesZhang Yan Work Title: Wilderness PastureZhang YidiWork Title: Traces of the Wind · Grotto SeriesZhao Jiarong Work Title: The void withinArtists AssociationYouth Art Talent ProgramIN -- The First Fashion 100 Project Conclusion Achievement Exhibition & Series of ShowsExhibition Dates: March 22, 2026 – April 19, 2026Exhibition Venue: CAFA Art Museum, 1st Floor Hall / 3rd Floor Gallery BGuided by: China Federation of Literary and Art CirclesHosted by: Chinese Artists AssociationOrganized by: Fine Arts and Art Center of China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, Beijing Institute of Fashion TechnologyCo-organized by: Fashion Design Art Committee of Chinese Artists Association, CAFA Art Museum, China Fashion AssociationSupported by: Chenfeng Group, Huaman·Miyin, Deshang GroupChief Consultants: Zhu Di, Fan Di'anGeneral Directors: Qu Jian, Huang Keying, Jia Ronglin, Lin Mao, Xu Yang, Yu YangChief Planners: Wang Ping, Zou You, Jin JunExhibition Coordination: Li Wei, Wan Lan, Han Wenchao, Gao Gao, Hai JunCuratorial Team: Wang Yixing, Xu BoCuratorial Assistants: Sun Ningning, Ma Hongjin, Li Zhiqian, Lyu ShanqiFashion Show Directors: Liu Fang, Lin JiuruFashion Show Coordination: Yan Xuyan, Zhang Yuhang, An Ning, Gu XiProject Coordination: Wang Jing, Liu Yuhan, Wang Feifei, Yang Lei, Wang Changyu, Wang Ruicheng, Dong ZhimiaoChief Editor / He Yisha Editor / Du Yinzhu

铭记与传承 | 周令钊先生221件作品入藏央美

2026-03-16

他是“最美奋斗者”,亦被誉为“新中国设计第一人”。他为共和国塑造了视觉记忆,用画笔定格了一个时代的光与影。参观现场2023年1月3日,周令钊先生溘然长逝,享年104岁。生前,他已郑重决定将221件作品捐赠中央美术学院美术馆。在其爱女周容教授的悉心整理以及中央美术学院的支持推动下,这批作品得以进行系统的学术梳理并完整呈现,最终促成本次“画在时光深处——周令钊先生捐赠作品展”。由此,这不仅是一次作品的集中入藏,更是一份跨越时间的艺术托付与精神回响。2026年3月12日,在展览展出之际,“周令钊先生作品捐赠仪式”在美术馆举办。周令钊先生捐赠中央美术学院美术馆的221件作品,涵盖水彩、水粉、速写、连环画、壁画、宣传画与设计等多个门类,时间跨度自1938年至2008年,贯穿其七十年的艺术实践。嘉宾合影中央美术学院院长林茂、副院长于洋,周令钊先生家属代表周容,美术馆领导班子,学校各科研处室代表以及展览策划和收藏团队的负责人出席开幕仪式。美术馆副馆长高高担任主持人。中央美术学院副院长于洋致辞中央美术学院副院长于洋代表学校向周容老师以及周令钊先生家属表达了诚挚的感谢和崇高的敬意。他表示,此次周先生家属的慷慨捐赠不仅是对美院的深情厚谊,更是对中国高等美术教育事业的一份巨大支持和宝贵财富。2018年美院百年校庆之际,习近平总书记给8位老教授的回信,周令钊先生位列首位。周先生所代表的,正是老一辈美院人宽厚的人格与崇高的艺品。日前,全国两会刚刚闭幕,林茂院长提出的“以大艺术推动大美育”议题,为大家指明了方向。美术馆的核心职责,正是践行这一理念,让艺术之美惠及大众。有了周令钊先生这200余件珍品的支持,在美术馆同仁及全校师生的共同努力,定当不负厚望,让更多美院学子继承先生精神,为教育强国、文化强国建设贡献更大的力量。周令钊先生家属代表周容致辞周令钊先生家属代表周容表示,今天这场捐赠展,让其感到特别自然和温暖,就像父亲生前的为人一样。站在这里,往事历历在目——父亲从小历经战乱,军阀混战、抗日战争,直到1948年下半年来到北京,才在美院开启了新生,也在这里走完人生旅程。他一生向往美好,即便在苦难中也始终坚持传递正能量,用作品把美呈现给大家。解放后,他重走当年战争的路线,为人民而创作,为国家形象建设助力,用温暖的形式记录下祖国的山河巨变。这批作品捐给学校,是最好的归宿。希望它们能像父亲本人一样,继续滋养年轻学子,让后辈从中受益。中央美术学院美术馆馆长靳军致辞中央美术学院美术馆馆长靳军在致辞中向周令钊先生表达了深切的敬意。他谈到,周先生是中国20世纪最重要的艺术家之一,也是老一辈艺术家中的典范,曾为新中国的国家形象建设做出了突出贡献,更为一代代艺术工作者做出了榜样。今天这个展览,清晰而全面地展示了他的重要创作历程——如何描绘祖国的大好河山,如何刻画社会的发展面貌,周先生对艺术的不懈追求如同一盏明灯,照亮着后辈前行的道路。靳馆长由衷地感谢周蓉老师及周令钊先生家属的慷慨捐赠,将这批精彩而珍贵的经典作品交予美术馆珍藏、研究和传承。未来,将通过这些作品,让“大美育”的理念更广泛地传播,使更多艺术从业者以及社会各界的观众,都能从中领略中国艺术和社会的发展脉络与成就。中央美术学院美术馆副馆长高高担任主持人“画在时光深处——周令钊先生捐赠作品展”即将于3月15日闭幕,这批作品不仅为我们理解周令钊先生的创作脉络与工作方法提供了关键线索,也使观众得以回到其创作现场,在作品的细节与结构中体认其艺术精神,并进一步识读其独具特色的视觉语言与表达体系。愿大家在“时光深处”,重拾那份历久弥新的清澈、坚定与温暖;亦愿这份精神在今天的课堂、创作与生活之中持续启迪今天的艺术工作者,不断思考如何在时代的画卷里,找到自己的笔触与光芒。展览现场主编 | 何一沙责编 | 杜隐珠现场图 | 贺伊飞

CAFAM Exhibition Preview | Wide Angle° Youth Experimental Project Space "Echoes of A Voyage — Lyu Zhi-qiang" Coming Soon

2026-03-11

"Echoes of a Voyage—— Lyu Zhi-qiang"Exhibition Time: March 13, 2026 — April 20, 2026Exhibition Venue: Hall C, 2nd Floor, CAFA Art Museum"Returning is the movement of the Dao." What the Tao Te Ching states forms a time‑transcending resonance with the operational logic of the Loop in electronic music: the movement of the Dao is reversal, an eternal tendency to return to itself. For the artist Lü Zhiqiang, the echo of this ancient image manifests most explicitly in the repeated practice of linear perspective using the rope‑and‑ink method, and also emerges in a more circuitous way through years of excavation and re‑composition of the soundscapes along his journey.In modern electronic music, the Loop is not merely a technical device but rather an ontological declaration. It breaks with the linear structure of Western classical music—beginning–development–climax–ending—and its repetitive beats and melodies outline a non‑linear, circular model of time. Nietzsche’s idea of the eternal recurrence finds an auditory re‑presentation here:“The eternal hourglass of existence will keep turning, and you are but a grain of dust within it.”Trapped in a circular orbit, should the individual feel agony or ecstasy? This is the Hamlet‑question of modern life.An old Volkswagen Jetta is the materialization of this question: every engine start, every journey marked by its tire tracks, constitutes a subjective response to eternal recurrence. During a trip to revisit the First Automobile Works in Changchun, the artist learned that the production line that assembled this car had a history of circulation—from Germany to the United States and then to China. To achieve localized production, Chinese workers had creatively modified this weathered line in countless ways. All this has silently provided a contemporary footnote to Nietzsche’s thesis: as Deleuze argued, the Same inevitably generates Difference in circulation, much like lines drawn strictly according to the rules of perspective still show subtle shifts with every snap of the inked line. The Loop of life plays on endlessly. The industrial glory of yesterday, once celebrated in early automobile advertisements, has faded, yet beneath the worn paint emerges an eternal structure. No matter how many cycles it undergoes, the soul of this “German car” is undeniably infused with the spirit of northern China.The car’s hybrid lineage also mirrors the metaphor of identity in contemporary culture: the artist’s identity is no longer a singular, ontological definition. In the prismatic world of life, he is a car owner, driver, traveler; a sound collector, DJ, and stage designer; a student of perspective and a spatial surveyor; and at the same time, a teacher within the academic system, whose duty often involves negotiating a spiral Loop between inheritance and creation, discipline and enlightenment. These parallel fragments of experience are like scattered stars, yet when consciously integrated into the subject‑identity of “artist,” an orderly constellation‑like map emerges from chaos. In fact, this map points precisely to what Benjamin called “the possibility of reshaping experience”—that is, “the liberation of historical energy confined within the social form of art as an independent entity.” Here, art as aesthetic experience has long become an abrupt method of action: it flows into the path toward the everyday with the flexible posture of perception, reflection, and intervention, introducing liberating energy into a new dimension of historical life.Wang WentingMarch 2026 Selected Previous Works 《Mohemann's Living Room》个人项目,2020A Long Road, Sound Installation, Stereo, 1 hour 11 minutes, 2019Admonition sound installation, 3-channel, 29'39", 2017"Gaze/Inhibition", watercolor paper, Chinese ink, aluminum-plastic panel, steel, alkyd paint, 180120cm, 70*70*100cm (installation part), 2015Scavenger, Installation, Performance, Urban Waste, 2012Modern Tate Museum, Waste from the Art District, 350cm × 410cm × 360cm, 2011Cabin, Tree Branches, 350cm × 200cm × 260cm, 2010Crawler, Installation & Research Documentation, Found Objects, Steel, 900cm×1200cm×350cm, 2009 Exhibition team | Curator |Wang WentingShe teaches at the School of Art Administration and Education, Central Academy of Fine Arts.

Through academic nominations, the exhibition will focus on presenting the diverse styles and profound thoughts in contemporary female artistic creations, offering the beauty of art to Beijing in March.The exhibition, themed "Shape Of Myself " is both a poetic interpretation of female artists' efforts to shape themselves and express their inner worlds, and an accurate summary of their continuous exploration and innovation in artistic language. Currently, the creations of female artists have become an indispensable and important force in China's art world. With their unique perspectives, keen perceptions, and tenacious spirit of exploration, they have made remarkable contributions to the refinement of artistic language, the deepening of ideological concepts, and social and humanistic care. This academic nomination exhibition aims to highlight these outstanding achievements, promote academic research and public dialogue on female artistic creation, and build an exhibition and exchange platform with both academic height and social influence.This exhibition covers two major categories: oil painting and sculpture, bringing together representative works by two generations of outstanding female artists in China. It specially invites renowned artists and nominated young emerging artists to present their works side by side. Here, one can see the profound attainments of mature artists as well as the exploratory vitality of the younger generation, jointly constructing a vibrant landscape of contemporary Chinese female art.As a special gift for International Women's Day on March 8th, this exhibition is both a concentrated review of the creative achievements of contemporary Chinese female artists and a heartfelt tribute to the power of women's art. It is hoped that through this exhibition, the audience will be able to experience the charm of contemporary women's art up close and inspire academic reflection and dialogue.—— | About The Chinese Women Painters Association | The Chinese Women Painters Association was founded in December 2012.
