Summer blockbuster exhibition at Nanbo! Endless Treasures: The Artistic Spirit of Su Shi's Calligraphy and Painting!
► This is probably one of the biggest special exhibition events in the cultural relics world this summer!
The Nanjing Museum's three-year special exhibition "Endless Treasures" is an unprecedented blockbuster exhibition
- Centered around Su Shi's calligraphy and painting, in addition to his authentic works, 150 pieces of artworks influenced by his artistic spirit from the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties are all here
- Many are rare pieces exhibited for the first time, including over 80 first-class calligraphy and painting works, among which there are more than 30 pieces from the Song and Yuan periods
- Artworks from the Song and Yuan periods have extremely high historical and cultural value, and in order to protect the cultural relics and ensure that the paintings are properly displayed during the three-month exhibition period, Nanbo will divide the exhibition into three phases
►How to visit
- Su Shi was the first to propose the concept of 'scholar-official painting'!
Literati painting, also known as 'scholar-official painting', generally refers to paintings made by scholars and scholar-officials in ancient Chinese society, as opposed to folk painters and professional painters from the court painting academy. The term 'literati' here specifically refers to people with culture, talent, and thought, so literati painting places great emphasis on artistic conception, stressing 'the conveyance of moral integrity through literature'
- The exhibition is divided into two major sections: painting and calligraphy. The painting section
includes three chapters: 'Expressing the Heart and Pleasing the Mind', 'Capturing the Form and Spirit', and 'Poetry in Painting'
The calligraphy section includes two chapters: 'The Law with Emphasis on Meaning' and 'Calligraphy as Cultivation'
The chapters are interconnected, collectively showcasing the profound artistic spirit of Su Shi
►From the audience's perspective
In the design of the exhibition hall, special double-glazed low-reflection glass is used to display all the calligraphy and painting works, and soft lighting ensures the best clarity of the exhibits,
The total introduction text of the entire venue is over a hundred thousand words, so you won't have trouble understanding

Nanjing Museum is a new place to punch in. The atmosphere is magnificent and the museum has rich cultural relics. A good place to walk your baby and improve yourself. There is a Republic of China building complex in the museum, which contains a real restoration of history on the street of the Republic of China, and a tea house commenting on the interpretation, that is, the history has also promoted traditional culture.
There are many exhibits, known as the treasure of the town courtyard of the six halls of the first hospital. But many treasures of the town halls have not been displayed, and basically 18 pieces can be seen by one-third. The historical museum is very large and there are many exhibits; not all the special exhibition halls are open, and some exhibition halls are under maintenance; The art museum is basically a temporary exhibition, you can see what you can see by luck; the Republic of China Museum is a place to punch in and take pictures, the smallest digital museum, suitable for children aged 5~ 6 years old. Generally speaking, it is very distinctive in the provincial-level museum.
Nanjing Museum is one of the best museums in China. It is famous with the Forbidden City. The exhibits are rich and dazzling. It is necessary to ask a commentator to listen to the story behind each exhibit and feel the vastness of Chinese culture.
I grabbed a ticket last night, although I arrived at ten in the morning and only went in at three in the afternoon, which was not a worthwhile trip. Because I was fortunate to meet Mr. Wang Qian, the vast reserves of historical knowledge, the focus of the two hours selected, no waste, the speech process is constantly taking care of the children, and when I leave, I also tell other attractions worth visiting, praise his professionalism and quality! ! !
Nanjing Museum is referred to as Nanyuan or Nanbo. Its predecessor was the National Central Museum, which was founded by Cai Yuanpei in the 22nd year of the Republic of China (1933), and it is the earliest museum created in China and the first large-scale comprehensive museum built by the state investment. Nanjing Museum covers an area of more than 130,000 square meters, which is the pattern of "Six Halls of the First Hospital", namely, the History Museum, the Special Exhibition Hall, the Digital Hall, the Art Hall, the Non-legacy Hall, and the Republic of China Hall.
Now the museum is very popular, it is difficult to make an appointment to get a ticket, temporarily decide to travel, no time to grab a ticket, make an appointment to explain, can go in and watch, but also improve the efficiency of the tour, the experience is very good. Suitable for people who decide to travel temporarily.
It was noon time to go to the museum. I was worried about where to go to eat. I accidentally saw a small sign: Please go to the negative Yiyixuan restaurant for dinner. It is very recommended, the environment is clean, the dishes are rich, hygienic, the taste is great, the service is in place, the price is high, it is said to be the internal restaurant of the museum!
Nanjing Museum is worth a visit. The scheduled explanation service is very good. It coincides with the 90th anniversary of the construction of the hospital in 2023. I have seen a lot of celebrity real deeds and feel a lot. Although the cost of 2 people is very high, but Mr. Cai's explanation is in-depth and shallow, and the personal knowledge is rich. I recommend Mr. Cai as everyone's first choice. Nanjing Museum is a worthwhile trip!
