In the early 1990s, with the arrival of Hong Kong painter Huang Jiang and a group of early oil painting merchants and artists, Dafen Village began its development by producing and exporting hand-painted oil painting replicas. After years of growth, it gradually formed a complete industrial chain and market network, becoming known as \u201cthe world’s largest oil painting production base.\u201d At its peak, Dafen contributed over 70% of the global oil painting market share, with more than 60% of its products exported. Oil paintings from Dafen have reached over 100 countries and regions, including Europe, America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an art production community born and developed during China\u2019s period of reform and opening up, Dafen has always been closely tied to changes in national policies and economic structures. In 2007, the Ministry of Culture officially named Dafen as the \u201cNational Cultural Industry Demonstration Base.\u201d<\/strong> In 2018, Shenzhen launched a pilot reform of its cultural system, choosing Dafen Village as a key site to explore the \u201cDafen Model,\u201d focusing on mechanisms for integrating public cultural services, art industry development, and community management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
