The Historical Evolution of Chongqing Art Museum of Guotai Art Center

The first stage: the earliest Chongqing Art Museum

Located in Fuzi, Linjiangmen, Jie Fangbei, Chongqing, Chongqing Art Museum is the earliest art museum and cultural symbol in Chongqing. Chongqing World Trade Center was built in its present position.

Fuziqi was originally the Confucius Temple in Chongqing. Until War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's time, this place was the center of Chongqing's cultural activities, forming the Chongqing Fuziqi Art Exhibition Hall, which was named Chongqing Art Museum in the early 1980s. Zhu Xuanxian, the artist, is the curator, who is fully responsible for the work of the museum. This is the earliest and only art museum that can represent Chongqing. It has created one of the most brilliant and active periods in Chongqing's art history, which has a great influence, thus promoting the development of Chongqing's culture and art in an all-round way and becoming the center of Chongqing's culture and art and the window of foreign exchange.

At that time, there were frequent artistic activities here, and almost all important art exhibitions were held here, which influenced and promoted the people and artists of this city and influenced a generation. This has become a well-known and popular saying in Chongqing's folk life: "Go to the Confucius Temple to see the exhibition", which was an indispensable and important cultural project in the lives of Chongqing people and foreigners at that time.

The second stage: sichuan fine arts institute Chongqing Art Museum, Huangjueping.

On June 29th, 2002, the newly established Chongqing Art Museum was established in sichuan fine arts institute, Huangjueping. As a non-profit social and cultural institution, it shoulders the social responsibility and historical mission of collecting art, holding art exhibitions, conducting academic research, popularizing aesthetic quality education, promoting cultural and artistic exchanges between China and foreign countries, and promoting the development of contemporary art. Artist Luo Zhongli is the curator. Sichuan fine arts institute, which enjoys a good reputation at home and abroad, is regarded as an artistic pearl in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River. With its influence and advantages of academic resources, the early construction of Chongqing Art Museum was started.

On September 24th, 2002, when the leaders of Chongqing Municipal Committee inspected Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts in Huangjueping, Luo Zhongli suggested whether the newly-built art museum of Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts could be listed as Chongqing Art Museum, so as to solve the problem that the municipal art museum could not be built in the near future due to lack of funds. This proposal was immediately supported by the city leaders. On September 30th, the relevant leaders of the Municipal Party Committee presided over a coordination meeting to solve the problems related to the listing of sichuan fine arts institute Art Museum as Chongqing Art Museum. At the same time, it is decided that the newly-built Chongqing Art Museum will be officially listed on129, with a capital contribution of 500,000 yuan. Autumn is the harvest season. In this season, it is not only the art museum that has been harvested-this is another attempt of institutional innovation in Chongqing. Chongqing people listed the provincial art museum on the university campus, and combined it with the university art museum, creating a national precedent. This attempt has created a new model of urban cultural construction and cultural resources integration. Chongqing leaders believe that this attempt is conducive to breaking industry restrictions in the future and mobilizing the resources of all units in the city to serve Chongqing's construction.

It was established on June 29th, 2002, adjacent to the Yangtze River, surrounded by green hills and dotted with green trees and sculptures.
