The ancient Silk Road, where the sound of camel bells can still be heard, is a road of mutual learning among civilizations. Stretching thousands of miles and lasting for thousands of years, it has seen countless exchanges and interactions.

The 'Sound of Camel Bells - Silk Road Art Exhibition' at the Beijing Minsheng Modern Art Museum, the largest Silk Road art exhibition in history, collaborates with more than 60 museums and cultural art institutions at home and abroad, presenting the rich artistic landscape of the eastern section of the Silk Road, from Luoyang and Chang'an to Xinjiang.

The exhibition spans three floors, covering 6000 square meters, and displays more than 500 sets of first, second, and third grade cultural relics from over 10 provinces, autonomous regions, and 35 cities. Many of the works are making their debut in Beijing and are being exhibited to the public for the first time.

The exhibition is divided into five chapters: 'Prologue', 'Earth', 'Humanity', 'Sky', and 'Art Eternal'. The more than 500 sets of exhibits span 4000 years and cover various categories such as painting, sculpture, statuary, artifacts, sound, video, and multimedia, presenting a multi-dimensional 'Silk Road Space-Time'.
Tips:
① The 'Mandala Sand Painting' presented by Xiaqiong Temple, the foremost of Qinghai's four ancient temples with a history of 700 years, is very shocking. The world's prosperity and the dance of life are but a handful of fine sand.
② Explore seven grottoes of different styles: Kizil Thousand Buddha Caves, Kumtura Thousand Buddha Caves, Bezeklik Thousand Buddha Caves, Mogao Caves of Dunhuang, Yungang Grottoes, Longmen Grottoes, and Maijishan Grottoes, all under one roof, which is very rare!
③ At the entrance, the 'Crown Buddha' from the early Tang Dynasty in the South Cave of the Drum Tower of Longmen Grottoes is on public display in Beijing for the first time, weighing 7 tons, it is grand and magnificent.
④ For the sake of protecting cultural relics, many exhibits are only on display for 3 months. Although the exhibition lasts until July 13, visiting earlier will allow you to see the most complete exhibition effect.
⑤ The relief of the Arhat at the Longmen Jingjing Temple, which is not only included in art history textbooks but also has a legendary experience of being stolen overseas and finally returned, is worth a careful appreciation.
⑥ Located on the third floor, the digital art work 'Digital Luoyang' presented by the Harvard University China Art Lab, lasting 7 minutes, is worth an immersive experience.
⑦ Follow the guide for a full experience of the exhibition. Call the art museum in advance to find out the guide time for the day.

Very meaningful exhibition, if there is a reliable teacher to explain it will be better, Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian and other people are real, really received a lot of goods, there is a teacher on the scene to give a few children to study explanations, by the way, listen to it, the income is very shallow
Some of the Mogao Grottoes that can't be seen at the Minsheng Art Museum in Beijing can be seen at the Minsheng Art Museum. It is very shocking to understand the power of ancient religious beliefs.

Dunhuang art exhibition deeply shocked me, Dunhuang born brilliant, beautiful colors, full character mentality, exaggerated artistic expression, the integration of Central Plains civilization and Western civilization in Dunhuang artworks show a fascinating charm!
I waited a long time to go. It’s good. There is 3D eye service.
Very good and very satisfied.
Minsheng Art Museum is based on an industrial building in the 1980s. It challenges the closure, singleness and fixedness of the art museum today with openness, diversity and flexibility. It will become the largest public platform for contemporary Chinese art. The entire gallery has a construction area of 10,000 square meters, designed by Zhu Ying, an internationally renowned architect, and the gallery design consultant is served by Thomas Karens, former president of the Guggenheimbo Foundation in the United States.
