由中国美术家协会和浙江省文学艺术界联合会联合浙江省文化厅、中国美术学院主办的杭州·中国画双年展于2017年新年前后展出。

第四届杭州·中国画双年展确立了“正大气象”的主题，以中堂画的形式来表现中华文化的正大气象。中堂画是最能代表人的精神追求和人格写照的中国画样式。展览分三个主题，即“风·怀乡之风”、“雅·清韵之雅”、“颂·堂正之颂”，展出了256件中国画精品。

在振兴中华、实现中国梦的时代大背景下，本届杭州·中国画双年大型展览的作品形式多样、特色鲜明，显示出中国传统文化藝术的魅力和中国文化精神。

Majesty and Splendor in Just Ways

The 4th Hangzhou Biennale of Traditional Chinese Painting was held around Spring Festival in 2017 in Hangzhou. It was jointly sponsored by China Artists Association， Zhejiang Federation of Literary and Artistic Circles， Zhejiang Administration of Culture and China Academy of Art.

The biennale featured “Majesty and Splendor in Just Ways” as its theme. The 256 exhibits at the event were all large-size paintings in the central scroll format， a format for halls in traditional residences. Three themes were highlighted：

Airs： Nostalgia， Hymns： Grace and Rhythms， Eulogies： Odes to Majesty and Splendor. The sectional names were directly copied from Chinas most ancient collection poetry titled “The Book of Songs”.

Praiseworthy were the diversity and distinct theme of the biennale， which featured the charms and essences of traditional Chinese art and culture.
