The Qingdao Sculpture Garden & Museum, as one of the earliest established professional sculpture gardens & museums, has occupied an extremely important position in the history of Chinese sculpture.
PhoenixNet in order to better understand the current state of development of Qingdao Sculpture Garden & Museum had an exclusive interview with Du Lihua, executive vice president of Qingdao Branch of China Sculpture Institute. On January 12, 2012, the Qingdao Branch of China Sculpture Institute was formally established; from then on the sculpture park, idle for years, opened the prelude to its rebirth.
The Qingdao Sculpture, which featured "May the Wind" as a symbol, had guided the trend of Chinese urban sculpture in the late 1990s. There are many urban constructions in public space, but it is only sculpture that truly possesses culture and life. Urban sculpture as the city's eyes and image reflects the spiritual characteristics of the city.
