Long Museum 龙美术馆

The Long Museum is a private art museum founded by husband-and-wife art collectors, Mr. Liu Yiqian and Ms. Wang Wei. The museum has locations at three iconic sites in the cities of Shanghai and Chongqing – the Long Museum Pudong, the Long Museum West Bund, and the Long Museum Chongqing. They form a unique ecosystem of “one museum, two cities, three locations.” The Long Museum is one the finest private art museums in China, and houses a large collection of artworks spanning across multiple countries and generations. The Long Museum is committed to hosting high quality art exhibitions, research work, collecting, and promoting public education. They believe it is their core responsibility to advance the development and legacy of art. At the same time, they focus a large part of their research on examining the exciting connections that emerge between ancient and modern art, eastern and western art, and presenting the nuanced diversities found in art from a global perspective. The museum aims to show the brilliant achievements of Chinese art history alongside the new perspective that contemporary Chinese art brings to the world. These endeavors have thus made them into a world-class private museum.
