 Jul 29 2024  

The "Grand Gathering of Screens" exhibition on ancient screen art is a themed exhibition held in conjunction with the release of the new book "Screens." It is jointly organized by Zhongmao Shengjia International Auction Co., Ltd., Wanquantang Ancient Furniture Art Museum, and China Forestry Publishing House, and is displayed at the Shengjia Art Center. The exhibition runs from May 12 to 31. Over 30 rare and unique screens are making a prominent appearance at the Shengjia Art Center.

Mr. Liu Chuansheng is a collector and connoisseur of ancient Chinese furniture and the founder of the Beijing Wanquantang Ancient Furniture Art Museum. His deep connection with screens began with a love at first sight for a black lacquer painted screen and a black lacquer plain screen. This sparked over twenty years of relentless exploration. His long-term observation, reflection, and insights into screens have culminated in the book "Screens."

On the day of the event, Mr. Liu Chuansheng led the attendees on a tour of the "Grand Gathering of Screens" exhibition on ancient screen art and introduced some of the exhibits. Following the tour, the attendees gathered to engage in a discussion on the topic of "Inheritance and Innovation in Ancient Furniture Art."
