Interwoven Sunlight - French Academy of Fine Arts Sino-French Academician Art Special Exhibition.

Chengdu Museum 1st Floor No. 1 Special Exhibition Hall, from September 28, 2024 to December 15, 2024, will hold the "Interwoven Sunlight - French Academy of Fine Arts Sino-French Academician Art Special Exhibition". At the beginning of the 20th century, with the goal of "importing world civilization into the country", the movement of studying and working in France opened a process of Chinese people seeking truth from the West and the survival of the country. A group of young people, with the vision of revitalizing Chinese art and pioneering modern aesthetics, experienced the changes in European art in the capital of art, examined and studied Western art theory, creation and teaching system, and sought the transformation and innovation of art language. Since then, the brilliant chapter of Sino-French art exchanges and mutual learning for a hundred years has been opened, and the masters of fine arts who have learned from both Chinese and Western cultures and have communicated with ancient and modern times have had a profound impact on the breakthrough and development of modern Chinese fine arts "integration of Chinese and Western cultures". The French Academy of Fine Arts, established in 1816, connects the classical and the modern, and is the highest art research hall in France. The academicians of the French Academy of Fine Arts use art to condense the national spirit and convey the power of guardianship and development. On the occasion of the "60th Anniversary of the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations between China and France and the Year of Sino-French Cultural Tourism", the Chengdu Museum, in conjunction with the French Academy of Fine Arts, the National Art Museum of China, and the Chinese City Sculptor Association, for the first time gathered in Rongcheng the works of 7 academicians and 2 correspondent academicians of the French Academy of Fine Arts. Through the dialogue and resonance of Chinese and French artists in separate and connected spaces, they present the attention and gaze of Eastern and Western cultures, and bring audiences a unique and precious Sino-French art tour.
