The cultural pearl on the Silk Road - Dunhuang Painting Academy
【Opening】: Dunhuang murals are an important part of Dunhuang art, including historical scrolls over a thousand years across eleven dynasties, which is a systematic history of Chinese fine arts. Since its establishment, the academy has received great attention and support from the Dunhuang Municipal Committee and the Municipal Government. The academy takes learning, inheriting, and promoting Dunhuang art as its foundation, and it is the earliest and largest professional painting academy in Dunhuang. After nearly 30 years of development, the Dunhuang Painting Academy carries the mission of inheriting, promoting, and innovating, and has gradually evolved from a research institution focusing on the painting techniques of Dunhuang murals to a platform for the inheritance, exchange, and innovation of Dunhuang art and culture in China and East Asia.
