This article focuses on the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art as a case study, employing Jean Baudrillard's Consumer Society Theory to analyze the operation and transformation of the Chinese contemporary art market. The study's primary objectives are to dissect the intricacies of the Chinese contemporary art market's operation and its specific evolution path. Additionally, it offers recommendations for future developments and prospects within the contemporary art market, aiming to enhance the global dialogue of Chinese modern art. Baudrillard's Consumer Society Theory provides a strong theoretical foundation for scrutinizing the contemporary art market, enabling a deeper comprehension of its developmental trends. Through this analysis, the paper contributes to improving the quality of Chinese modern art and its international exchanges while bolstering confidence in Chinese culture.
