WUHAN, China, Jan. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Following the successful holding of the 1st East Lake International Ecological 
Sculpture Biennale in November, 2017, East Lake Ecological and Life Art Project 
was launched in Shimenfeng Memorial Park with the aim of commencing a brand new 
artistic exploration after an intense and rewarding preparation of more than 
one year. This upgraded new art project, on the basis of its regionality and 
growth potential, will be implemented in a long-term and step-by-step manner. 
The project encompasses three sections, namely, "Ecological Installation," 
"Ecological Architecture," and "Ecological Garden," of which Japanese curator 
Fram Kitagawa, Director of Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale and Setouchi Triennale, 
is the Chief Curator. This project takes the initiative to interpret life 
aesthetics, to explore and reconstruct the connections and meanings of art and 
life, and to embark on the way of innovation in life industry. It will lay a 
new foundation for the upgrade of ecological culture in Shimenfeng Memorial 
Park and the promotion of the overall development in art and culture in Wuhan.
