[2025 Nanjing Attraction] Travel Guide for Jiangsu Art Museum (Updated Apr)

Travel Tips: * Original Chinese name: National Museum of Fine Arts * Geographical location: No. 266, Changjiang Road, Xuanwu District, Nanjing City[9] * Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday 9:00-17:00; closed on Monday * Scenic spot level: National key cultural relic protection unit * Ticket price: Free Specific game strategy: The Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum we visited this time was formerly known as the National Art Museum. The museum is full of the atmosphere of the Republic of China period. After checking the history, I found out that the architectural design of the National Art Gallery was selected from 14 design proposals submitted from all over the country, and the advantages of the first, second and third prize design proposals were combined. Fortunately, there are not so many internet celebrities yet, but there are still many people taking photos and checking in. However, it is much better than some internet celebrity spots without connotation. You can still see some paintings of masters here and learn from them. Most of them are ink paintings, and there are also some nostalgic theme columns, comparative film history and other exhibitions... When I went into the museum, I unexpectedly discovered Qi Baishi's [Ink Shrimp], which is the treasure of the museum! There are also many mountain landscape ink paintings At the same time, the indoor architectural style here is also very beautiful in any photo. Ni Ni has also come here to check in and take photos. The venue is not big and you can finish the tour quickly. In short, it is very suitable for a visit in your spare time. #Go to the museum to explore

The highly anticipated Nanjing National Art Museum (now the Jiangsu Art Museum Exhibition Hall) has undergone more than a year of meticulous renovation and will make a grand return on December 31, 2024, reopening its doors to the public with a fresh new look! Built in 1936, this art museum is the first national art museum in Chinese history, witnessing the beginning of China's art museum industry and representing the start of modern Chinese art exhibitions. It was designed by the famous architect Xi Fuquan, who used a simple and bright style to express nationality; the interior layout was designed according to the requirements of modern art exhibitions, making it smooth and bright. In 2019, the "Former Site of the National Art Exhibition Hall" was successfully selected as the eighth batch of national key cultural relics protection units. The first exhibition after reopening, "Seeing Words as 'Me' - Zhang Jian's Hometown Feelings in Calligraphy," showcases more than 130 pieces of Zhang Jian's calligraphy works and related documents. Through this exhibition, visitors can travel through the long river of history and experience the perfect integration of calligraphy art with social responsibility and the mission of the times. Now, the Nanjing National Art Museum is looking forward to meeting you with a brand new look and rich exhibition content. Let's walk into this art palace together, explore the traces of culture, feel the warmth of history, and embark on an unforgettable art journey! Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday 9:00 - 17:00, closed on Mondays (last admission at 16:30) Venue address: No. 266, Changjiang Road, Xuanwu District, Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province Ticket information: Free admission (reservation required) Transportation: Take Metro Line 2 or Line 3 to Daxinggong Station, and walk to the venue.

The National Art Museum of Nanjing is a building full of Republican Era style, with exquisite interior decoration and historical staircases, each revealing a unique charm and beauty. 🩵I love this retro and modern design style, and I plan to visit Nanjing next time. 🆓Advance reservation is required. 📍Jiangsu Art Museum ⏰Opening hours: 9:00–17:00 (last entry at 16:30), closed on Mondays (except public holidays). ✔️Jiangsu Art Museum Exhibition Hall Address: No. 266, Changjiang Road, Nanjing, 455m walk from Exit 5 of Daxinggong Subway Station.

Located in the cultural building complex on Changjiang Road in Nanjing, the Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum was originally the National Art Gallery, which was completed in August 1936. It is the first national-level art museum in modern China and marks the beginning of the development of China's art museum industry. In 1956, the Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum, as one of the earliest provincial-level art museums established in New China, opened to the public, and was officially named in 1960.

||The quality of this free new exhibition at the art museum is so high!! Flowers symbolizing the blossoming of life, and withered lotuses symbolizing life's final stages; water rippling with waves, as if marking the passage of time; the artist uses traditional woodblock prints and ink on paper to express contemplation and thoughts on life. The recent exhibition at the Jiangsu Provincial Museum, Chen Qi's 'To My Return' exhibition, can be described as a visual feast!! 'To My Return' is named after the phrase 'Heart's sorrow, to my return' from the 'Book of Songs·Cao Feng·Mayfly', which not only laments the fleeting nature of time but also reflects Chen Qi's return to his origins after 32 years, rebuilding the geographical connection with his homeland in the south of the Yangtze River and the spiritual communication with his own brushwork and ink technique. Moreover, by using the image of the mayfly, it echoes the cosmic view of his representative work 'Time Stave' with its clothes fish and wormholes, achieving a spiritual reconstruction of 'sending the mayfly to the universe, a mere grain in the vast ocean.' The exhibition feels both traditional and modern, both abstract and concrete, both transcendent and aesthetic, both simple and rich. This free exhibition's quality is just too high!

🖼Even if I don't have an artistic bone in my body, even if I don't understand creation, or even if I'm not interested in calligraphy and painting, how can I resist the Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum? Because... who doesn't yearn for 'beauty'? The key is that during the hot summer, visiting exhibitions inside the museum is the top choice for staying cool! 🏰The old gallery of today's Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum was originally built in 1936 as the National Art Gallery, the first national-level art museum in modern Chinese history. Now, it is divided into the old and new galleries. 📺At the Jiangsu Provincial Art Exhibition Hall 'Oriental Charm,' classic Chinese art pieces are showcased. 'Mommy, mommy'... 'I'm not your mommy, your mommy has four legs'... Do you remember this short story from textbooks, or the animated film on TV—'Little Tadpoles Looking for Their Mother'? Have you watched 'Havoc in Heaven,' 'The Calabash Brothers,' 'Fantastic Tales of Tianshan'...? These familiar yet long-lost names, aren't they classics from your childhood animation memories?! 🔮The three-story exhibition hall features early landscapes, paper-cutting, New Year paintings, shadow plays, and animations depicting idioms. Each segment is vividly remembered, especially 'Little Tadpoles Looking for Their Mother,' China's first ink and wash animation, which is also featured at the opening of the exhibition. 🎥In addition to frequently mentioned and variously remade series like 'The Calabash Brothers,' 'Journey to the West,' 'Nezha,' many may have forgotten 'Mr. Dongguo,' 'The Proud General,' 'Fantastic Tales of Tianshan,' 'Three Monks,' 'The Fox Hunts the Hunter,' and so on, which once brought us laughter and a fair share of childhood shadows, right?! 🦌'National Treasures' mentioned the Mogao Caves, which talked about 'The Nine-Colored Deer.' Because of the Nine-Colored Deer, we learned about the Mogao Caves. In fact, many animated stories convey knowledge, morals, and character to us, such as gratitude, humility, respect for the elderly, and shared responsibility. Traditional Chinese virtues like 'benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, faith,' 'gentleness, kindness, respect, thrift, and modesty,' and so on, are also conveyed to us through these art pieces during our childhood! ❤️Therefore, we don't need to envy how animations are in Japan or America. Chinese art animations have a glorious history and continue to break new ground today. We have our own 'Oriental Charm'! 🛎1. The first and second floors are exhibition halls, and the third floor offers a viewing experience of animations that can no longer be found on TV or online. 2. On the left side of the first floor, there is an artistic café where enthusiasts can sit and take photos at their leisure. 📷The building itself is an art piece, full of aesthetic appeal. From the steps in the corridor, the chandeliers, and the large floor-to-ceiling windows, paired with benches, it's full of a retro vibe. And this corridor is a popular spot for Instagram-worthy photos. Many beautiful visitors come here to take photos by the windows and staircases. You can also take photos of the details of your exhibition visit, as the lines are very characteristic. 📍Location: No. 266 Changjiang Road, Xuanwu District (this is the old gallery) 🚗Transportation: Two-minute walk from Daxinggong Station on the subway. ⏰Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday from 9 am to 5 pm. 💰Free admission, reservation required. 🖼Compared to the old gallery, the new gallery has a more modern appearance and interior decoration, so the artworks exhibited in each period are also modern art collections. Currently, the two floors above ground and one floor underground are open. 🖼For example, the 'National Art Exhibition' on the first floor, with its red backdrop, oil paintings, watercolors, and calligraphy, presents majestic works in a quiet and pleasant viewing environment. One section even celebrates the valiant figures of Jiangsu athletes and the calligraphy and paintings of Jiangsu's public fitness! This year is the year of sports, the Olympic year, which is very fitting! And today just happens to be National Fitness Day, isn't that a coincidence?! 🗺The second floor is filled with various prints in a whole hall, so 'neat and orderly'! Even in a dim environment, photography enthusiasts can't contain their enthusiasm and start creating right there on the benches! 📚The basement floor is for special and temporary exhibitions, with the 'Xu Jian • Xie Shiqiang' theme exhibition. And my favorite is still to browse the various museum cultural and creative stores, even if I don't buy anything, just to look and be inspired by art! Of course, if there's something I particularly like, it's only right to purchase it! The museum has also set up a café, where you can enjoy a drink, hold a book, and there's even a stepped book city at the staircase entrance, all with a literary and fresh atmosphere! If you can do so without disturbing others, there's also a reading room where you can sit and rest! How nice is that?! 🆒Nanjing's summer is hot as a furnace, but in the various museums along Changjiang Road, slowing down and calmly viewing and reading exhibitions is another unique summer experience, isn't it?! 📍Location: No. 333 Changjiang Road, Xuanwu District. (Opposite the Six Dynasties Museum, close to Nanjing Library) 🚗Transportation: About 400 meters walk from Daxinggong Station on the subway. ⏰Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday from 9 am to 5 pm, free admission, ID required for ticket reservation!
