Long Museum is a private institution founded in 2012 by Liu and his wife, Wang Wei, who have been ardent art collectors for more than 30 years. In the past decade, the museum has built a comprehensive and systematic collection of Chinese and international art, and it is recognized as an important art institution not just in Shanghai but all over China, Zhao says.

"The art circle in China holds the Long Museum in high regard, and Rong Bao Zhai is honored to collaborate with it on the joint exhibition. Together we are presenting one of the most anticipated events in the Chinese art scene this year. The art communities in Beijing and Shanghai should communicate and work together more often," he adds.
