The Luo Zhongli Art Museum is one of the three provincial-level art museums in Chongqing, and it is also the art museum with the largest area. The designers of the art museum are not some international master, but are famous local artists such as Luo Zhongli and Hao Dapeng. Such a distinctive architectural work not only brings new vitality to the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, but also guides the ideological trends of Chinese contemporary architecture.
It is not only a space for art exhibitions, but also a complex that integrates art education, academic research and cultural exchange.
Approaching the outer wall of the art museum, the colorful wall is shocking. These dazzling colorful fragments are collected by teachers and students from waste discarded by various manufacturers.
The overall building of Luo Zhongli Art Museum is designed as an enclosed courtyard. Each building is like a granary with a height of four stories. The facades of all buildings are covered made from graffiti with colorful tiles. Coupled with the bold use of colors, this overwhelming feeling can only be experienced on the site.
The clay sculptures, plastic sculptures plated with copper, and cast-bronze sculptures on display at the art museum can enable you to learn about a wide variety of sculpture arts.
The world-famous sculpture work "The Rent-Collection Courtyard" vividly depicts the scenario of landowners in the early Chinese feudal society exploiting the common people without losing the beauty of sculpture. It portrays the figures in a lively and detailed way, with each character having different expressions and postures.
On the first floor of the art museum, you can see the treasure of the museum - the sculpture "Father". This sculpture adopts a realistic approach to carefully carve out the weathered face, solemn expression and the folds of the clothes of the "father", further showing his simple and resolute temperament. Through this form of sculpture, you can feel the strength of the character's image and the tranquility of his heart from multiple angles.
The museum also houses a large collection of representative artworks from various periods that are closely related to the cultural history of Chongqing and the southwest region, as well as many outstanding works of art. Here you can gain an in-depth understanding of the history of modern and contemporary Chinese art.
There is a commercial street near the art museum, which offers a variety of delicious foods. However, please note that it is not allowed to bring beverages into the art museum. Inside the museum, you need to abide by all the regulations of the art museum. Do not touch or damage the artworks, keep quiet, and show respect for others and other visitors.
