A hundred items (sets) of exhibits will be on display, and 25 museums and institutions across the country will be participating in this event. The exhibition is divided into four key sections, which illustrates the development of gold art between the Shang and Qing dynasties and the intercultural communications between different regions in the past.

 

The craftmanship of Chinese gold art will be demonstrated, including how the technology has been inherited since the ancient times. The exhibition catalogue will be published in November 2020.
