Museum night event celebrates art for all, physically and virtually

The Art Museum of Central Academy of Fine Arts came alive on a vibrant Saturday night, brimming with joy, laughter, and delightful surprises. The diverse audience, comprising many young children and their parents, immersed themselves in the ongoing exhibition of graduation works — an annual showcase by the academy not only to display the achievements of its fresh graduates but also to share their creativity with the wider public.

The exhibition featured a rich array of artistic expressions, including paintings, prints, sculptures, installations, and designs. Graduates, alongside their mentors and seasoned members from galleries and auction houses, engaged with visitors, offering insights into the artworks and sharing the intricacies of the fine arts world.

Adding a unique touch to the event was the unveiling of a digital platform, a collaborative effort between CAFA and Mofangyan, a technology firm. This platform enabled remote appreciation of the artworks with interactive elements, enhancing the overall experience for attendees. Notably, parents of the graduating students, hailing from various parts of the country, were able to partake in the real-time excitement, bridging the physical distance to share in their children's artistic journey.
