 n the 12th May, the 2009 Shanghai New Ink Art Exhibition was held at the Shanghai Duolun Museum of Modern Art. The main theme of the exhibition is Ink Art Today.

 Among more than the 70 international and domestic participating artists, there are those from the older generation, such as Liu Guosong, Cheng Jialing, Chou Deshu, as well as those from the younger generation, such as Cheng Xinmao and Jin Weihong. International artists include Barbara Edelstein (from United States), Ya-Qiu Maruyama (from Japan) and Ryu Il-seon (from Korea). The differences in age, background, geographical locations and culture all play a part in the works of the exhibition, resulting in a wide variety of artworks, causing a rich and constantly changing picture.

This is seen from the original exhibition with the theme Unity of Heaven, Earth and Human in 2005, to the 2nd exhibition Renewable Ink in 2006, to the 3rd exhibition Exploration in 2007, to the current exhibition Ink Art Today, as well as from the original three artists to the approximately 70 overseas and Chinese artists working together in this current exhibition.
