Lucie Chang Fine Arts is pleased to announce that our gallery founder @lucie_chang was interviewed by @serica.venice within the art space of our new exhibition, ”Il Dolce Far Niente“ (東西閒情), sharing her insights into the exhibition‘s origin and curatorial vision. 🎨
The exhibition features representative works by Zhu Xinjian (朱新建), an iconic figure in Chinese contemporary art, and Italian artist Thomas Braida. Coming together in this historic city, these two artists from vastly different backgrounds explore the collision and symbiosis of Eastern and Western painting languages within a contemporary context, offering a shared interpretation of this deeply philosophical theme.
The exhibition will remain on view until May 30. We cordially invite art lovers and collectors to visit and witness this artistic practice that transcends geographical and cultural boundaries. ✨

If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed?
