MACAU SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 29 January 2026 - As 2026 rears into view and the Lunar New Year glitters around the corner, Galaxy Entertainment Group (GEG) is proud to present the "Golden Fortunes: the Macau Debut of Zhu Bingren's Copper Art" exhibition at GalaxyArt, the exquisite artistic and cultural arm of Galaxy Macau. Running from now until April 12, the exhibition showcases a series of major works by Master Zhu Bingren, the National-level Inheritor of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Copper Carving, marking the debut exhibition of Master Zhu's artworks in Macau and bringing together multiple genres of his creations. Master Zhu's son, Mr Zhu Junmin, – who has carried on the living legacy of his father's craft – showcases a multitude of his works at the same exhibition. The exhibition is held with the precious support of the Macao SAR Government's Macao Government Tourism Office and Cultural Affairs Bureau. Copper, with its warm, glimmering lustre, has symbolised blessings and prosperity across millennia within the Chinese culture. Chinese maestro Master Zhu Bingren continues a century-old family legacy while pioneering new chapters in molten‑copper artistry. Beyond preserving the traditional gengcai technique, he has also innovated unique methods such as "molten copper". From his early integration of copper into architecture, to his development of fine art pieces, he has expanded the medium from structural craft to modern artistry, reinvigorating this ancient craftsmanship with talent and dexterity. As the Horse gallops into the coming Lunar New Year, "Golden Fortunes: the Macau Debut of Zhu Bingren's Copper Art" presents 68 signature works by Master Zhu and Mr Zhu, 38 of which feature the equestrian theme. Sculpted with high‑temperature glaze, these magnificent works intertwine the bold, dynamic style of Tang‑dynasty horses with Western realism and contemporary influences. Their poised, galloping forms symbolise good fortune, vitality, and progress in the Year of the Horse – bringing blessings and vitality to exhibition visitors. On January 28 morning, Mr Cheng Wai Tong, Acting Director of Macao Government Tourism Office; Mr Cheang Kai Meng, Vice President of Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Macao SAR Government; Mr Philip Cheng, Director of GEG; Mr Lao Ngai Leong, Representative of the 14^th National People's Congress and Vice President of All-China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese; Mr Wang Baosheng, President of Chinese Cultural Figures; Master Zhu Bingren and Mr Zhu Junmin officiated at the opening ceremony.

It offers visitors a rare opportunity to appreciate the breadth and artistic vision of Master Zhu's exceptional craftsmanship." Master Zhu Bingren said: "Nine years ago, I first set foot on this land, and the openness and inclusiveness of Macau has remained deeply engraved ever since. My works include 'Confluence of the Three Rivers' and 'Emerald Plumes, Blossoming Grace' continue to innovate in the copper art medium.
