From June 27 to July 3, IESA arts&culture hosts in its gallery the exhibition organized by the Embassy of China to present young Chinese talents, some twenty young artists who represent, across all media, the trends of emerging Chinese contemporary art. The Embassy’s education department entrusted the curation of this exhibition to our professor Ziqi Peng and to our Master 1 student Shina Mei.

The Minister Counselor for Education of the Embassy of China, Yang Jin, and the President of the Galileo Global Education Group, Marc-François Mignot-Mahon, to which IESA arts&culture belongs, made the trip for the opening of the first edition of this exhibition and took the opportunity to meet Boris Grebille, director of the school, and Juan Zhou, head of the Asia department, to discuss future collaboration projects between Chinese players in education and culture and the Galileo Group schools.

This opening evening was a great success. A concert of contemporary Chinese music on traditional instruments and a wonderful buffet allowed IESA students and the invited public to get acquainted and discuss the works presented. This exhibition should be the first of a long series, since the Education Department of the Embassy of China is keen to take part, in partnership with IESA arts&culture, in the dissemination of contemporary Chinese culture.
