2. Silent Thunder

The UCCA Center for Contemporary Art presents, Silent Thunder, a group exhibition examining the links between Buddhism and contemporary art in China, interrogating the concept of "Buddhist art" as a whole. It is open until May 23.

The four artists featured in the exhibition approach Buddhism from varying angles, some earnestly engaging with faith and belief, while others utilize religious iconography as an entry point into broader social and historical questions. From these different perspectives, the artists use sculpture, installation, painting, and other media to propose how Buddhist and Chan art might be reimagined, at once bypassing and implicitly responding to external frames for understanding Buddhism.
