In 1985, when the artist Gonkar Gyatso and his partners jointly established the "Sweet Teahouse School", Tibetan artists began to reach beyond of ancient plateau in search of new art. In 2003, artists Gade and Tsewang Tashi founded the "Gendun Qunpei Artists Guild" in Lhasa, striving to break through the stereotypes of Tibetan art, and to let more people in the world understand the contemporary Tibetan art scene. Today, Tibetan contemporary art has begun to flourish, and the interaction with the art world at home and abroad is becoming more and more equal, bringing the artists greater achievements and opportunities.

The Tibetan contemporary art works in this exhibition are all created after the millennium.  Through different media, the works tell the new story of the Tibetan art scene.
