What's on
Relaxing lifestyles
Beyond the Soil, now running at Hanshan Art Museum in Suzhou, Jiangsu province, is an exhibition that exudes the nostalgic feeling of a slow-paced, relaxed lifestyle and, more importantly, examines the changing relations between people and land. Specifically, how much society has gained from soil for development and in what ways we have paid it back, or, in contrast, damaged it.
More than 120 works by 50 artists are on show until Dec 15 to celebrate the vigor of the land and invite discussions on the future of the ecosystem.
Artists collaborated with scientists at the Institute of Soil Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, based in Nanjing, Jiangsu. Together, they present ways to help the public understand the plight of the land and agriculture.
10 am-6 pm, closed on Mondays. 999 Taihu Dadao, Suzhou New District, Suzhou, Jiangsu province. 0512-6958-0894.
