The exhibition has been listed as one of the selected collection shows at art museums this year. It is an annual appraisal event initiated by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism to boost the development of public museums nationwide since 2011.
Wu Weishan says the exhibition will not only rotate more of his museum's diverse collection, but is also a gesture to encourage people to read more, especially to engage in the slow and thoughtful reading of literary classics.
"Those pictures have reconstructed the scenes being narrated in the books. They provide us alternative ways to understand these historic masterpieces. They have made the words more vivid and our experiences of reading even more enriched," he says.
