黑料不打烊

Art Basel has brought together over 4,000 artists from 280 galleries to its marquee June fair in Switzerland.

The juxtaposition of Yang Xinguang and Muhua Li鈥檚 work transforms the space into a charged field of tension, offering whirling perceptions of two divergent art practices through the lens of their differences.

Differences will lock together like the mortise-and-tenon joints of Chinese carpentry as the fair joins forces with Gallery Weekend Beijing and ART021 Beijing as part of the capital's Art Season.

Art Basel鈥檚 highly anticipated 2025 edition will bring together 290 leading galleries from 42 countries and territories, presenting an extraordinary array of works across all media鈥攆rom painting and sculpture to photography and digital art.
