Perfect path

Dao in Chinese means the road, way and path that also includes the rules, courses and methods to achieve one's goal. The Perfect Path recently opened at the Art Museum of the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, shows the approaches of various artists and art groups embracing an international vision, grounded in their traditions.

The exhibition, running until Jan 10, is a collaboration between the China Academy of Art and the Venice Biennale with its Historical Archive of Contemporary Arts, launched on the 700th anniversary of the death of Marco Polo, the Venetian merchant and adventurer who reached Hangzhou in the 13th century.

The exhibition pays tribute to this historical connection between Venice and Hangzhou and looks to deepen exchanges between Italy and China in a new era.
