“Garden of Friendship” evolved from the “Youyi Visual” exhibition in Hangzhou which was
brought to China by Maurice Quillinan and a team of supporters in 2019. This selected
rendition presents an eclectic spectrum of Irish Contemporary Art to the Beijing public.
It is the garden with all its diversity that points to our relationships. At this unique moment
“Garden of Friendship” offers new perspectives on connections and elicits from us our
greatest creativity and courage and the intriguing prospect that we can build a safer and
more inclusive home.
