On August 2, 2024, a unique cultural exchange activity was held warmly at Zhejiang Art Museum.
Art Has No Borders, Culture Is Inherited Together
On the morning of August 2, foreign friends from all over the world gathered at Zhejiang Art Museum to start an in-depth journey into Chinese culture and art. This activity was carefully planned by GoApply, an overseas study service platform, aiming to provide foreign friends in China with an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of traditional Chinese culture and the development of contemporary art.
As a professional international student service platform, GoApply has always been committed to providing comprehensive study abroad support for overseas students. In addition to professional application services, we pay more attention to students' cultural integration experience, and regularly organize a variety of cultural exchange activities, so that every friend from afar can deeply feel the profoundness and extensiveness of Chinese culture.
Review of Event Highlights
Two Exhibitions in Parallel, an Art Feast
This visit included two important exhibitions:
• "Casting Veins - Zhejiang Sculpture" exhibition: It displays classic works and images in the century - long history of Zhejiang sculpture, as well as the important contributions of sculptors in Zhejiang and those with Zhejiang origin. It presents to the art world and the public the bloodline of Zhejiang's modern sculpture history, the context of modern sculpture education, and all the pulses of sculptors and the objects they shape.
• "Spring Scenery All Over the Land of Zhijiang, a New Picture of Lucid Waters and Lush Mountains" calligraphy and painting exhibition: To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the proposal of the concept that "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", it shows the achievements of Zhejiang's ecological civilization construction through calligraphy and painting art.
Unexpected Surprise, Cultural Experience
The most surprising part of the activity was the unexpected gain in the hall on the 2nd floor of the art museum. When our visiting team came to the 2nd floor, they happened to meet several professors majoring in fine arts who were creating figure sketches on the spot. The enthusiastic professors took the initiative to invite our foreign friends to be models and draw their portraits on the spot. This unexpected cultural interaction experience made the participants very excited. They not only deeply felt the charm of painting art, but also gained a precious work of art.
Just as GoApply has always advocated, studying abroad is not only the pursuit of academics, but also an in-depth experience of culture. We believe that such encounters and interactions are the best embodiment of the inclusiveness and affinity of Chinese culture.
Thoughtful Service, Warm Company
At the beginning of the activity, the organizing team carefully prepared small gifts with Chinese cultural characteristics for each participant, making the international friends from afar feel the strong Chinese friendship.
Voices of Participants
In on - site interviews, friends from different countries expressed their appreciation for this activity:
Salma, an international student from Morocco, shared: "This is the most meaningful cultural activity I have participated in since I came to China. Through these works of art, I have a deeper understanding of the Chinese people's love for the natural environment and their pursuit of a better life."
Mohammed, an international student from Zambia, said: "The on - site sketching experience made me feel the enthusiasm and professional quality of Chinese artists. This way of cultural exchange is great!"
Good Times, Forever Cherished
The activity came to a successful end with a group photo of all participants. This photo, carrying the smiles of friends from different cultural backgrounds, has become the most precious memory of this cultural exchange activity.
