A drawing begins with a line. There are many types of lines, such as curved, straight, dotted, and wavy lines. And the expression of the line will change depending on the material used for drawing. Pencils or pens can draw thin and sharp lines, while charcoal or chalk can draw thick and soft lines. In traditional Japanese painting, lines are regarded as an important element that expresses the artist's personality. 
Line drawing is a sketch of a finished work that aims to clearly outline the form of an object. In the world of lines, by dividing and depicting various existences in the world, each object is fixed in the field of meaning. In this process, the abstract concept of contour lines that do not exist in reality becomes the basis of painting. On the other hand, after entering the modern era, the expression of lines has been given independent value. In abstract paintings born after the 20th century, the plasticity of lines has begun to attract attention. Painters began to pursue new line creations, which made lines begin to show unprecedented diversity and expressiveness. Therefore, while being the origin of painting, lines have also begun to become an ancient and novel theme. This exhibition will select about 150 works from the collection, mainly prints and drawings, supplemented by paintings, sculptures and photography, to show the diversity of line expression in modern art. This exhibition will provide an interesting place for the audience to explore the visual role of lines that are not often paid attention to in daily life.

The experience at the Kaiyukan is amazing. The Starbucks at the exit has a beautiful view. There is also a pier where you can take a boat to Universal Studios on the other side! The entire Kaiyukan has a reasonable flow, and the rental of the audio guide is also very convenient. It is definitely worth a visit!

Conan&#39;s seat of Tongtian Pavilion. Traveling to Daxu will basically come here to visit. Tongtian Pavilion is still a landmark building. I remember that it was very lively here before. I don&#39;t know why I don&#39;t feel that there are not many people this time. It should be good to have time to climb the Tongtian Pavilion to see the scenery.

Shinsaibashisuji

Conan&#39;s seat Shinsaibashi. There are also a lot of people in Shinsaibashi, a large lv, but the door is very early at 7 o&#39;clock, it will be closed at 6 o&#39;clock and the exchange rate is quite cost-effective before the bill is urged. There are quite a lot of food nearby, and it&rsquo;s okay to find a family to eat when you&rsquo;re hungry.
