For the first time ever, contemporary art images from “The Best of Beijing: Contemporary Chinese Art” collection will be seen in the United State, and Florida Southern College’s Melvin Art Gallery is the site chosen to host the event.

The “Best of Beijing” exhibition consists of 34 works by 30 artists, many of them large-scale paintings and photographs. The works were assembled by two galleries, Red Gate Gallery in Beijing and the Byron Cohen Gallery in Kansas City, Mo., and brought to Miami Beach for the Art Basel festival last month.

James Rogers, chairman of the Division of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts at FSC, had seen some of the works on a trip to Beijing in 2004 and realized it would be affordable to bring them to Lakeland from Miami.

The Byron Cohen collection will be on exhibit until Feb. 5, when it will return to Beijing. The Red Gate collection will continue on exhibit until March 19, when it will travel to Cologne, Germany.

Don’t miss this chance to see this amazing collection of Chinese Post-Modern art.   The Florida Southern College galleries are open to the public from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday when the College is in session.
