Shenzhen’s art scene is bursting with energy as 2025 Art Week takes over the Shekou Culture and Arts Center! This year’s lineup is bigger than ever—69 local institutions are serving up 80+ exhibitions and programs, proving why this city is China’s creative powerhouse.  

Dive into dazzling contrasts:  

- Xue Song hypnotizes with abstract landscapes—think fiery mountains, silken bamboo, and blooms that pulse with wild freedom.  

- Li Shan jolts the senses with bio-art hybrids: mutant paintings, sci-fi sketches, and films that ask, "What even is life?"  

But wait—there’s more! Chat with 8 top creatives about art’s clash with history and skyscrapers, or hit the streets for 16 art trails sniffing out hidden gems (Dafen’s oil-splattered alleys! Aohu’s rebel studios!).  

Art newbie or hardcore fan? Either way, Shenzhen’s boldest visions are waiting to blow your mind.
