Behind the scenes...🎥🎬 TV interview and opening preview at the Asia World Expo for 'A Day in an Open City: A Journey through “Springtime Along the River" 清明上河圖 3.0' 🛶
One of the most iconic works in world art history completed around the beginning of the 11th century, it is a masterpiece of literary and visual depiction that embodies a voyage in both time and space inside the day of a bustling urban centre. The exhibition is hosted in a 4000sqm hall at the Asia World Expo featuring a digital animation of the painting presented on a 5m high and 30m long ultra-high-definition projection and a 180-degree Dome Theatre that allows visitors to experience a virtual boat ride on the Bian river. The temporal narrative begins at dawn in a tranquil rural scenario, and takes the observer through the city‘s suburbs among its markets and busy river banks, until revealing the frenzied life of the inner quarters of the walled city in the afternoon hours~🌅 Showing til 25th August! ✨
