HOW Upcoming Exhibition | Vitality of Variables

HOW Art Museum (Wenzhou) is pleased to announce its upcoming group exhibition “Vitality of Variables”, which opens on October 1st, 2020. 

These variables are inherently artistic. Needless to say, refreshing on the aesthetic level plays a significant role in art. However, the variables contained in aesthetics and dynamism radiated by these variables are where the in-depth charisma of art lies. In an era where order is almost all-pervasive, to respect and truly feel the variables, cultivate their vitality, enhance one’s faith to stick to oneself, tackle vanity with vision, uncover the surface with courage, unleash the nature through wildness, counteract with rebelliousness, empathize with fashion via fundamental emotions and transcend logic through spirituality – only in this way, would dignity and beauty be sensed from within the integration of the “insight” of art and the “intriguingness” of aesthetics.
