The 6th Beijing Dangdai Art Fair held at the National Agricultural Exhibition Center from May 23 to 26 brought together 122 exhibitors from 14 countries.

The event emphasized diversity and cohesion, merging classic and digital art forms, and integrating them with concurrent cultural activities like Beijing Design Week and Gallery Weekend Beijing. The organizer's emphasis on open and rich "locality" is a concept that Beijing Dangdai has adhered to since its inception. This is not just a cultural strategy, but also a way to show respect for the rich and diverse art world itself.

Notable digital art installations, such as Yu Yue's Infinity, highlighted the intersection of art and technology. The fair also aimed to bolster Beijing's cultural landscape and international art trade. 

It has plans for future exhibitions focused on digital art, young artists, and interdisciplinary collaborations, with the aim to expand its influence and enhance ­Beijing's cultural landscape.
