Chongqing Art Museum

The Chongqing Art Museum is an art museum in the Yuzhong area with four exhibition halls covering 8,200 square meters. The spaces display various art forms including traditional Chinese paintings, oil paintings, prints, and small sculptures.

The museum opened in 2013 inside a former Chongqing Academy of Painting building. This move represented an important moment for the city's art scene.

The museum displays Chinese paintings, oil paintings, and prints that reflect how local artists work across different techniques. Visitors can observe how traditional and contemporary pieces are presented side by side.

The museum sits on Linjiang Road and is accessible by subway. Admission is free and the building is straightforward to navigate with clear markers between exhibition areas.

The building is structured by a distinctive beam system where red beams run north to south and black beams run east to west. This construction creates a recognizable visual pattern across walls and ceiling.
