A new exhibition “Hemei Shengong” at Beijing’s He Art Museum is putting on display over 200 works from 75 Chinese artists and intangible culture heritage inheritors, providing visitors with a journey through China’s arts and crafts history spanning time and space. The new exhibition includes five sections, encompassing pottery, painting, weaving and more. 

A celebration of the achievements of Chinese arts and crafts, the exhibition also aims to create an exchange platform for artists that promotes the integration of tradition and innovation.   

According to Song Shaobo, director of the He Art Museum, arts and crafts are an important part of Chinese culture and have profound historical and cultural value. 

“We hope that through such an exhibition, arts and crafts will get closer to modern life and will keep flourishing in today’s society,” added Song. 

The exhibition is set to run until October 10.
