Peng Youshan Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition

　　The Peng Youshan Art Museum is located within the Meihu Scenic Area in Qingyunpu, Nanchang City, to the northeast of the Eight Great Masters Memorial Hall. Funded by the Nanchang Municipal People’s Government and managed under the umbrella of the Eight Great Masters Memorial Hall, the museum officially opened to the public in 2012. The Peng Youshan Art Museum is one of the earliest publicly funded art museums in our province to be named after an individual. It houses and displays 200 exquisite masterpieces donated free of charge by the family of Mr. Peng Youshan, as well as calligraphy, paintings, sculptures, and other works donated by renowned artists from home and abroad. The museum’s name was inscribed by Ms. Liao Jingwen, the wife of Xu Beihong.

　　The total land area is 3,810 square meters, and the total floor area is 2,559 square meters. The building has two stories above ground and one story underground, with a height of 9.7 meters. The building as a whole is shaped like the Chinese character “pin,” and it houses two permanent exhibition halls that regularly rotate displays of Peng Youshan’s works in traditional Chinese painting, oil painting, calligraphy, porcelain painting, and more. There is also one projection room that continuously plays documentaries and interviews featuring Peng Youshan from his lifetime.

　　The Peng Youshan Art Museum is both an elegant sanctuary of art and a public learning center that promotes truth, goodness, and beauty, inspiring moral conscience. Immersed in this exquisite atmosphere, people can freely and uninhibitedly savor and breathe in the fresh aura emanating from calligraphy and painting, as well as their profound inner meanings. This experience will undoubtedly leave one feeling deeply refreshed—both physically and spiritually—a truly enriching journey of the mind and culture.
