Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox recurring event The Chengdu Biennale (Шаблон:Lang-zh) is a contemporary art biennale event in Chengdu, China, started in 2001.

Overview

The entrepreneur Deng Hong funded the first four biennales (from 2001). From the fifth event (2011 onwards), the biennale has been co-hosted by local official cultural institutions in Chengdu. After the sixth biennale in 2013, there was an interval of the official event until 2021. During this period, another art event took place, known as the Anren Biennale, mainly privately funded and operated, starting in 2017.

The 2021 Chengdu Biennale started on 6 November 2021, running until 6 April 2022. The official launch of the Tianfu Art Park in the Jinniu District of Chengdu was held on 6 November 2021, with the opening of two new museum buildings in the park, operated by the Chengdu Art Academy. The Chengdu Art Museum surrounds a lake with two new museum buildings, the Chengdu Tianfu Art Museum and the Chengdu Museum of Contemporary Art. Artworks by more than 270 Chinese and international artists from 35 countries are on display at the biennale.{ The theme of the 2021 biennale is "Super Fusion". Chinese artists exhibiting at the 2021 biennale include He Duoling, Liu Jiakun, Xu Bing, Zeng Fanzhi, Zhang Xiaogang, and Zhou Chunya. International artists include Daniel Buren, Yoan Capote, Leandro Erlich, Carsten Höller, Anish Kapoor, and Jeremy Gardiner.
