🗓 May 3 – September 28, 2025
📍 Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Celebrate the 160th anniversary of one of China’s most beloved modern artists with a rare and vibrant exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
Qi Baishi: Inspiration in Ink brings together nearly 40 exquisite works—most on loan from the Beijing Fine Art Academy—offering an extraordinary window into Qi’s world of bold landscapes, delicate flora and fauna, and everyday life rendered in expressive ink.
Known for revolutionizing Chinese brush painting, Qi (1864–1957) masterfully combined tradition and innovation.
His works highlight the beauty in simplicity through vibrant color, calligraphic expression, and deeply personal themes that remain powerfully resonant today.
Whether you're an art enthusiast, a family looking for an inspiring outing, or someone eager to experience Chinese culture in a new way—this is a must-see exhibit.
