He Xiangning Art Museum

He Xiangning Art Museum, Art museum in Nanshan District, Shenzhen, China.

The He Xiangning Art Museum is a 5,000-square-metre art museum in the OCT area of Nanshan, Shenzhen. It opened in 1997 and is the first national art museum in China named after a person. Its collection and displays centre on He Xiangning's paintings and calligraphy, alongside regular contemporary art exhibitions.

The museum was founded in 1997 as the first national art museum in China to be named after an individual. It was named after He Xiangning, an artist and social activist in Chinese history.

The museum is named after He Xiangning, an amateur painter, wife of assassinated KMT left-wing leader Liao Zhongkai and mother of Liao Chengzhi, then head of the Overseas Chinese Commission. That family link explains why the gallery, the first national art museum in China named after a person, stands in the OCT area, once a State Farm run by that commission. Its collection holds works by He Xiangning herself alongside regular contemporary art exhibitions.

The museum sits in the Overseas Chinese Town (OCT) area of Nanshan, Shenzhen, within walking distance of Window of the World, Splendid China Folk Village and Yitian Holiday Plaza, so it can be combined with those sites in one outing. The building covers 5,000 square metres, and the galleries are indoors, making a visit workable in any weather.

The museum is the first national art museum in China named after a person. He Xiangning was the wife of assassinated KMT left-wing leader Liao Zhongkai and mother of Liao Chengzhi, then head of the Overseas Chinese Commission; that family link to the OCT state farm is one reason the gallery bears her name.
