Celebrating the arrival of the Year of the Horse in 2026, this exhibition explores horse-themed paintings in Chinese art by considering imperial and literati practices, the relationship between tradition and modernity, and the dialogue between Chinese and Western painting styles. The exhibition, drawing mainly on the Palace Museum collection and enriched by loans from the Hong Kong Museum of Art, the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong Palace Museum, will display nearly 100 horse-themed paintings by more than 60 renowned artists from the Yuan dynasty up to the 20th century.

Venue: Gallery 4, Hong Kong Palace Museum
