4. Appreciate the twin masters of modern Chinese art in Hangzhou

When it comes to 20th century Chinese art, Huang Binhong (1865-1955) and Qi Baishi (1864-1957) are two figures often mentioned in the same breath. The two art giants revolutionized and breathed new life into classic Chinese ink painting, which had languished in the art market while Western art prevailed.

Floral Aroma in Fall, an ongoing exhibit at the Zhejiang Art Museum, spotlights the masters' achievements in bird-and-flower painting by juxtaposing about 170 of their works. Viewers are invited to compare the approaches adopted by the two reformers as they tried to infuse traditional style with a modern twist.

If you go:

9:00 am-5:00 pm, Tuesday to Sunday, No. 138 Nanshan Road, Hangzhou 杭州市南山路138号,浙江美术馆
