"Bounded and Unbounded" Liu Youju's Art Exhibition in Rome

On October 21, 2025, the Liu Youju painting Art exhibition with the theme of "Bounded and Unbounded" was grandly opened at the Galleria Nazionale d 'arte Moderna e Contemporanea in Rome. As one of the key projects of cultural exchange between China and Italy, this exhibition has not only attracted much attention for its visual shock, but also drawn extensive attention from the Italian art and academic circles with its ideological dimension that transcends the boundaries of philosophy and painting.

 

This exhibition will last until November 23, 2025. Between the bounded and the unbounded, the illusion of art and the truth of thought are slowly unfolding - Rome is witnessing a light of thought from the East.

 

In this era of high ideological and material desires, Liu Youju has always advocated for freedom of thought and spiritual independence. The illusionary lines and gorgeous color achievements of his life and the best way to express the beauty of human nature.
