Founded in 2007, UCCA Center for Contemporary Art is China’s leading contemporary art institution. Located at the heart of Beijing’s 798 Art District, it occupies a series of repurposed Bauhaus-style factory chambers. Under the leadership of Philip Tinari, UCCA has evolved into a multi-city institution, serving as a critical gateway for global artistic exchange and bringing China into a global dialogue through a rigorous program of exhibitions and research-driven initiatives.

Yang Fudong: Fragrant River
22.11.2025 — 31.05.2026 UCCA Center for Contemporary Art presents “Yang Fudong: Fragrant River” from November 22, 2025, to May 31, 2026, the artist’s first institutional solo in Beijing. Anchored by a newly completed, 15-channel video installation of the same title, named after the artist’s hometown near Beijing, the exhibition brings together a selection of Yang’s most recent creations alongside early works. Through a constellation of media, “Yang Fudong: Fragrant River” explores the layered perceptions of time, growth, and memory, unfolding a rich set of metaphorical scenarios interwoven with personal emotion, shared memory, and historical temporality.
