Beijing - one of China’s and the world’s oldest cities - and its historical evolution are at the centre of an exhibition that retraces the key phases of the development of this Chinese mega-city. Inhabited since the Neolithic Period, the location of the origins of Homo Erectus Pekinensis, capital of the Chinese People’s Republic for over 70 years, Beijing has played, over the centuries, various roles according to the successive imperial dynasties and the geo-politcal context at any given time. Archeological finds, furnishings, clothing and vintage photos which summon up the history but also the customs of the city are presented in this permanent display which, in chronological order, thematic and highly educational, help the spectator to realise the mega-city’s historic and cultural wealth. It becomes apparent that Beijing, while being so oriented towards the future, finds, within its historical layers - even now, indispensable in fully understanding its genesis - its true DNA and its uniqueness.
The House in the Vision of the New Generation of Chinese artists
The exhibition offers a rich audiovisual experience that explores the cultural aspects of "home" through the eyes of a new generation of Chinese artists living in a globalized world.
The World Seen Through the Eyes of Alfredo Aceto and Jenkin van Zyl
Detach from Earth and end up with a tent on Uranus, leaving everything of this world behind. This is the Alfredo Aceto and Jenkin van Zyl's daydream, inspired by the texts of Paul B. Preciado and José Esteban Munoz. In the gallery spaces, an imaginary environment is created that represents a new way of feeling.
Among the greatest Italian opera artists of the 19th century, author of famous works such as Rigoletto, Il Trovatore and La Traviata, and a symbolic figure of national culture, the "maestro" was born on 10 October 1813 in Roncole, a small town in Northern Italy.
Face to Face with Antoni Gaudí, the Master of Catalan Modernism
The exhibition pays tribute to the renowned Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí. Known for his unique architectural style and iconic works like the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Gaudi's 18 buildings, including seven UNESCO World Heritage sites, make him an architectural legend in the world.
