Sands China unveiled two themed exhibitions for the Macao International Art Biennale 2025 on Tuesday, 29th July.
One is the special exhibition Dopamine: Fountain of Happiness at The Venetian Macao, showcasing exquisite artworks crafted by internationally renowned contemporary artists in collaboration with Sesame Street.
The other is the collateral exhibition Beyond the Frame: International Contemporary Masterpieces at Sands Gallery.
The exhibitions jointly feature a total of over 80 artistic creations which will remain on display until 15th October of this year.
Cultural Affairs Bureau president Leong Wai Man said of the exhibition: “Art Macao: Macao International Art Biennale has blossomed into its fourth edition this year, after debuting in 2019. This year’s special exhibitions have scaled new heights, with Sands China’s Dopamine: Fountain of Happiness transforming the European architecture of The Venetian Macao into a theatrical stage that traverses space and time, where Asian, European, and American artistic forces converge, reinterpreting the eternal beauty of ancient Roman mythology with a contemporary touch.”
Macao, as a metropolitan city of arts, invites visitors to wander through and participate naturally in the exhibition, co-creating the emotional resonance of joy and happiness that arts at The Venetian Macao can offer.
Dive into a fountain of happiness
Dopamine: Fountain of Happiness at The Venetian Macao aims to rekindle happiness through the power of dopamine aesthetics, which centres on vivid colours, boundless imagination, and the expression of positive emotions.
This vibrant showcase features nine outstanding artists from Asia, Europe and the United States: Craig & Karl, Bibi Lei, GRAFFLEX, Hei Lok, Ilya Milstein, Jun Oson, Jonni Cheatwood, and Song Zhou.
The artists have reinterpreted globally renowned Sesame Street characters to craft original artworks debuting at Art Macao 2025.
Extending Macao’s curatorial vision of Art + City, the exhibition is set against the picturesque architectural façade of The Venetian Macao.
The artists have reinterpreted globally renowned Sesame Street characters, intertwining them with ancient Roman mythology and the striking palette of dopamine art, each with their own artistic flair.
The result is a series of art pieces created exclusively for Macao, bringing art into genuine encounters with the public in a cross-medium, cross-temporal, and cross-cultural artistic journey.
Likewise, the exhibition’s Sesame Street characters seem to echo this year’s theme with their colourful art cascading across canvases and spaces to stir the deepest part of the viewer’s heart. This extraordinary artistry stands as the most eye-catchingly colourful highlight among this year’s special exhibition series.”
