The art festival “Art Museum Night” was designed to promote the communication and friendship between arts, college students, art lovers, and related art practitioners. It was held to encourage the establishment of “China is the most IN, the most lively art festival”. Boyce, one of the most important western artists in the second half of the 20th century, was a figure that cannot be avoided in the discussion of postwar contemporary art history. Boyce had a profound influence on art. Andy Warhol was the important artist in the 70s and 80s America, his influence was pervasive. He had applied and exploited a variety of media and performance without any taboo and had been involved in many different fields. Through the screen printing technique and repeated images, he turned the characters into visual merchandises. When Boyce and Warhol met at the art museum, we looked forward to their different artistic sparks. “Art Museum Night” will present a live performance, masquerade party and other art forms. The event will be based on the theme of the last “Art Museum Night”, which is the theme of “Boyce meets Warhol”. The art youths and art lovers of the country are invited to meet at the art museum of the CAFA Art Museum. Let the college students and friends from all walks of life who love arts gather in the art museum, to understand art, participate in art, enjoy art, create art, established the bond between art and art, art and non-artistic. [Activity Content and Process of Art Museum Night]
1. Exhibition tour of the “Master Guide Plan” exhibition: the museum is free to visit at 16:00 -- 18:00, and the public can visit the online exhibition for free.

Makeup -- guests and audience. The museum will provide all the guests with the make-up props as far as possible. Meanwhile, we also expect guests to make up for themselves.

PS: The exhibition information shall be added to each scheme, and the Night logo and co-organizer logo of the museum shall be clarified.III. The opening ceremony and live performance were gathered in the Art Museum Night (18:00-19:15).1. Band performance: Dirty little secret. The band’s music had no sense of heaviness. Members: Xiao Wei, Chen Yue, Li Lei, Xiao Jin and Jiao Yan. They used the most casual way to capture our hearing. Their music was free and easy, and the appearance of the surface was like without any decorations, but in essence, I thought they were giving people a relaxed attitude to listen to music. In a time when everything is complicated and everyone is alone and grandstanding, their simplicity brought the truest happiness.
2. Experimental drama: silent drama “12 Minutes of Circulation”. Performer: Handstand drama club. Artistic planning: Mistiming Club, Xiong Liang. The mistiming was mainly a collaboration of the creative people from 24 different time zones. They carried out the activities of publishing, exhibition and cross-cultural artistic creation and exchange in Beijing. Xiong Liang is a famous picture writer, the comprehensive artistic language “narrative” explorer. Based on Xiong Liang's picture book “the 24 Solar Terms”, the show used the body to feel the soil, and we want to show -- simple joy. “Simple” is not the concept of refinement, not limited to art, just to restore nature.
3. Dance performances: Performers of “Attention” are transboundary art team. They are Rosey Feltham from New Zealand and Georgie Cockburn from British, Ph.D. students from Beijing Dance Academy, treatment education experts and special education teachers and a former actor of National Ballet of China and a dozen disabled. They communicated with each other in a cross-field way and showed different people’s reactions and inspirations to the exhibition and translated them into dance body movements. They found a creative voice inside each person, witnessing the personal healing and social changes of Boyce’s art of thought.
4. Instrumental performance.Support unit: Capital Police Band. Chinese and western music interactive performance: Capital Police Band. Chief performance: Li Bo (saxophone)/Liu Yang (clarinet)/Gao Ruiyun (pipa).Track names: Fly Me to the Moon(saxophone and clarinet)/Myth (saxophone and pipa). East meets west. The show, which originated in Boyce and Warhol, also came from two western art masters who arrived in China with different artistic feeling and artistic influences. The performers were inspired by art to translated inspiration into music. Combining the traditional Chinese musical instrument pipa and western musical instrument, it presented a new audio-visual feast for the audience.
5. Contemporary drama: the performers are the graduates from the student union of Chinese Drama Academy. Xu Baiang, Liu Dian, Meng Lingshen, Wang Hao, Yang Ruiyu, Liao Jiani, Li Qinghong.The idea of the acting work, “the explanation,”was when Boyce met Warhol. In this century, through their works, we can look at it, feel its rich expressiveness, and care for the land and mankind. It used sound, form, costume try to disassemble the opera symbols, elements, then copy again and sort combination, for Warhol’s style of copy and color changing, to break the concept of color in our national culture of cognition. Color also contains timbre in addition to color. Consider the popular art of our last century with the western pop style. The performing area expanded to the whole museum’s atrium area and broke the relationship between audiences and actors. As the audience gathered to watch, they also became a part of the artworks, a picture, and apart. In the humble corner, there was an action to explain the love of the land, the confusion of the environment, and the struggle against life. Friendship transfer (Gift delivery): There are elaborate mystery gifts from Beijing TV. We will play music and send a gift from the CAFA and the Beijing TV by passing objects (mysterious balloons).
