Installation view, Transcultural Dialogues: The Journey of East Asian Art to the West, Fu Qiumeng Fine Art

We are delighted to feature New York-based Fu Qiumeng Fine Art in this week’s Gallery Spotlight. Founded in 2016 by Fu Qiumeng, this namesake gallery works at the intersection of East and West, contemporary and traditional. They are committed to exploring the visual and geographic globalization of contemporary Asian art, while documenting works that reflect classical Asian philosophy, aesthetics, and culture.

Through scholarly exhibitions, in-depth interviews, critical analysis, and forums for intellectual exchange, FQM has earned a reputation as a respected educational venue, where visual pleasure is intertwined with intellectual rigor. Set against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving contemporary art scene, the gallery’s program emphasizes the wide-reaching impact of globalization, while also exploring transnational and diaspora experiences.

A prime example is their current group exhibition, Transcultural Dialogues: The Journey of East Asian Art to the West, which examines the artistic evolution of East Asian traditions as they spread to the Western art milieu. On view through October 19th, the exhibit showcases the captivating exchange and interaction of visual language and conceptual frameworks between traditional ink art and modern American art.  Primarily focused on Chinese art, the show spans from the early 17th through the 20th centuries and into contemporary times, highlighting the early modernity and abstract quality of traditional ink masters alongside the reinterpretation of literati painting by diasporic Chinese artists who engaged with American Abstract Expressionism and explored notions of abstraction.

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience these masterful works by artists who bridge the gap between tradition and the present, offering reflections on identity, cultural exchange, and the ongoing dialogue between East and West.
