Sichuan Mei Shu Xue Yuan 四川美术学院
• Public Area—Free admission; No opening/closing hours
The neighborhood surrounding Chongqing’s art school and the campus itself is quite a sight. The old Communist standard concrete apartment buildings have all received a radical facelift. Bold colors have been liberally splashed upon the walls in abstract swirls and zigzags or in some cases in the form of larger than life cartoons. Inside the campus the buildings have toned down a bit, but there are sculptures dotting the landscaping.
Art Museum: Mei Shu Guan 美术馆
• Admission 10 RMB; Open 10-5; Closed on Mondays
Located within the campus is a sizable art museum with regularly rotating collections of art from around the world.
Bus Tip: 黄桷坪[川美老校区] or 杨家坪 (change buses or 10 RMB taxi)
