Appreciation towards BIG for providing the following description:

由 BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group、ARTS Group、VIA.inc 及水石设计的苏州当代美术馆现已正式向公众开放。展馆坐落于金鸡湖畔，建筑面积约6万平方米，由12座如村落般分布的展亭组成，并汇聚于一片连续、如丝带般起伏的屋顶之下。作为 BIG 首座落成的美术馆项目，苏州当代美术馆在举办一系列预热活动展览后正式启幕，成为苏州当代艺术、设计与公共生活的全新场所；”BIG：”唯物主义””展览亦将继续在馆内展出。

The 60,000 m² Suzhou Museum of Contemporary Art, designed by BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group, ARTS Group, VIA.inc and SHUISHI as a village of 12 pavilions beneath a continuous, ribbon-like roof, is now officially open to the public on the shores of Jinji Lake. Marking BIG’s first completed art museum, the project opens following a series of preview exhibitions as a new venue for contemporary art, design, and public life in Suzhou, with BIG’s Materialism exhibition remaining on view.

展馆的设计灵感源自苏州园林传统，特别是对”廊”——一条在景观中勾画路径的有顶连廊——的全新解读。它被转译为一套相互连通的展览空间网络：一条连续动线穿行于各个展亭之间，串联展厅、聚集空间与文化场所；参观者亦可沿着不同展览之间较小的路径，自由展开探索。各展亭通过地上连桥与地下通道相连，形成一组可随展览内容与季节变化灵活调整的空间序列。

Rooted in the tradition of Suzhou’s gardens, the museum reimagines the lang 廊, the covered corridor that traces a path through a landscape, as a network of exhibition spaces. A continuous route threads through the museum’s pavilions, connecting galleries, gathering spaces, and cultural venues while allowing visitors to branch off along smaller paths between exhibitions. Linked by bridges and tunnels above and below ground, the museum offers a flexible sequence of spaces shaped by changing exhibitions and seasons.

“经过多年的努力与协作，我们终于能够迎接访客来到苏州当代美术馆，令人十分欣喜。我们希望这座美术馆成为一处发现与交流的场所，让人们以新的方式体验艺术，并与跨越文化和世代的思想展开对话。通过展览与公共项目，我们期待美术馆能够成为苏州文化景观中长久的一部分，也成为吸引远近访客前来的目的地。”

——苏州当代美术馆执行馆长 王小晓松

“After many years of work and collaboration, it is a pleasure to finally welcome visitors to Suzhou Museum of Contemporary Art. We envision the museum as a place for discovery and exchange, where people can experience art in new ways and engage with ideas from across cultures and generations. Through its exhibitions and public programs, we hope to make the museum a lasting part of Suzhou’s cultural landscape and a destination for visitors from near and far.”

– Wang Xiaosong, Executive Director, Suzhou MoCA

在正式开放前，苏州当代美术馆已通过一系列预展迎接访客，其中包括现仍在馆内展出的” BIG：”唯物主义””展览。展览以石材至再生材料为线索，通过来自世界各地项目的大型样件与模型，探索十种不同材料如何塑造 BIG 的设计实践。此次开馆同时推出一系列展览，涵盖现代与当代艺术、技术驱动的艺术实践，以及东西方艺术传统之间的跨文化对话；其中包括毕加索展览及一项大型中国当代艺术综览展。

Ahead of its official opening, Suzhou MoCA welcomed visitors through a series of preview exhibitions, including BIG’s Materialism, which remains on view at the museum. The exhibition takes visitors on a material journey from stone to recyclate, exploring the role of ten different materials in shaping BIG’s work through large-scale mock-ups and models of projects from around the world. The museum now opens with a series of inaugural exhibitions spanning modern and contemporary art, technology-driven artistic practices, and cross-cultural dialogue between Eastern and Western artistic traditions, headlined by a Picasso exhibition and a large survey of contemporary Chinese art.

“如果说历史城区是中国园林的摇篮，那么湖区便是新苏州的摇篮。苏州当代美术馆的场地位于城市与湖泊之间。新建成的摩天轮在一定程度上阻隔了场地与水的联系。我们将美术馆消解为一座由相互连接的展厅构成的中国园林，如同公园中的展亭般分布于场地之中，使展馆成为连接城市与湖泊的纽带，而非一道屏障。市民可以穿过雕塑花园抵达湖岸，而水景则从展亭之间延展，通向城市。”

——Bjarke Ingels，BIG 创始人兼创意总监

“If the historic city center is the cradle of the Chinese garden, the lake district is the cradle of a new Suzhou. The site of the Suzhou Museum of Contemporary Art is sandwiched between the city and the lake. A newly constructed Ferris wheel partially blocks the relationship with the water. By dissolving the museum into a Chinese garden of interconnected galleries, distributed across the site like pavilions in a park, the museum becomes a connection between the city and the lake, rather than an obstacle. Its urban porosity allows citizens to walk through sculpture gardens to the lakefront, while the water penetrates between the pavilions to reach the city.”

– Bjarke Ingels, Founder & Creative Director, BIG

Bjarke Ingels 进一步表示：”从空中俯瞰，展馆宛如一个传统的中国结，与摩天轮的支腿交织，并一路延伸至湖中。随着大量访客登上摩天轮，屋顶表面事实上成为这座艺术综合体真正的‘第五立面’。我认为这一设计既是对当地文化遗产的致敬，也是以斯堪的纳维亚视角对中国园林这一独特类型的重新诠释；而最终成果在许多方面呈现了苏州的‘古老未来’，并印证了当代中国建筑中日益成为常态的高品质建造与技术成熟度。”

Bjarke Ingels continued: “From above, the museum appears like a traditional infinity knot as it intertwines the legs of the Ferris wheel to reach all the way into the lake. With the vast number of visitors ascending the wheel above, the roof surface de facto becomes the true fifth facade of the art complex. Not only do I see our design as an homage to its local heritage, a sort of Scandinavian reinterpretation of a unique typology, the Chinese garden, but the result is in many ways a manifestation of the ancient future of Suzhou and a testament to the construction quality and technical sophistication that is becoming the rule rather than the exception in contemporary Chinese architecture.”

“美术馆通过一种经过精心构建的双重关系，调和了西方与东方的空间传统。从空中俯瞰，展馆宛如传统手工艺作品：一系列如剪纸般的结围合下方的花园，将苏州的文化遗产转化为一件艺术作品。然而，当人们向下进入展馆，原本清晰的图底关系便逐渐消解。花园开始彼此交融，展开为由空间、景观、艺术与自然构成的连续序列——使从空中看似精确的构图，转化为地面上一段探索与发现的体验。”

——Catherine Huang，BIG 合伙人

The museum reconciles Western and Eastern spatial traditions through a deliberate duality. From the sky, the museum reads like traditional craftwork: a series of papercut knots framing the gardens below, turning the heritage of Suzhou into artwork. But as one descends and enters the museum, the clarity of the figureground dissolves. The gardens begin to flow into one another, unfolding as sequences of spaces, views, art, and nature – transforming a composition that appears precise from above into an experience of exploration and discovery on the ground.”
