Infinite possibilities
Since its launch in 2020, X Museum has been committed to promoting Chinese artists worldwide. It has held 15 exhibitions and established a partnership with Lulu independent art space in Mexico City to provide Chinese artists an annual platform overseas. It is currently running the X Mobile Museum project.
"We are discovering talented artists in the process, particularly from the young generation. They are a force in innovation, and we hope to take Chinese contemporary art to new heights," the museum director says.
Huang believes that despite sports and art being different lines, they can intersect like the letter X and lead to infinite possibilities. Hence, the collaboration between the museum and Wu won't stop here. The plan is to design a new jersey badge for the tennis player every six months.
"I think if there is a first time, there can always be a second time and then a third," Wu had said in a post-game interview to CNN on his historic performance.
The museum is sanguine that he will make history again, and that China will continue to shine on the world stage because of him and the country's remarkable multidisciplinary collaboration.
