Immersive exhibition viewing! Candle-lit appreciation of cave murals + miniature Dunhuang afternoon tea

🎨 The recent art exhibition 'Dunhuang As It Is Painted' that is most worth pondering over, not only can you see the classic collection of mud and paper copies of murals from the Dunhuang Academy, but also contemporary interpretations of Dunhuang prints, original Dunhuang children's paintings by teenagers, and dozens of other artworks, presenting a unique 'Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow of Dunhuang'. 🖼 In the mural copy works, classic flying apsaras, auspicious beasts, and algae well patterns are presented one by one. The copy of the 'Deer King Jataka' on the west wall of Mogao Cave 257 is also included, telling the well-known story of the 'Nine-Colored Deer'. The mud copy of the 'Mourning Bodhisattva' not only restores the compassionate expression of the Bodhisattva with drooping eyebrows and eyes, but also presents the cracks and damaged texture on the surface very well. 🕯️ Highly recommend the 'Simulated Cave Space', with two murals and a niche inside. Holding an electronic candle and walking, it's like going back to a thousand years ago, the murals under the flickering light show more mysterious beauty, full marks for the experience! 🐫 After the exhibition, go and check in the co-branded Dunhuang afternoon tea of 'The Forbidden City to the East × Dunhuang Academy', which is the complete experience. The two-foot tea tray's miniature desert, reproduces the micro landscape of flying apsaras dancing, camel teams under the sunset on the yellow sand slope. Accompanying the afternoon is a book 'Dunhuang As It Is Painted', flip through the book while drinking tea, savoring the infinite charm of Dunhuang art. 📍 Open Art Space of Beijing Jinyu Sheraton Hotel FUN Community ⏰ From now until February 29, 2024
