On February 3, the exhibition "Geometry, Harmony, Life - Andrea Palladio: Architectural Art from Classic to Canon" opened at the National Museum of China (NMC). This marks the first time an exhibition focused on Italian Renaissance architectural master Andrea Palladio has landed in China, and it will open to the public starting February 4.
Andrea Palladio is one of the most influential architects of the Italian Renaissance. His works blend the essence of classical architecture with practical functions, reshaping the landscape of European architecture. His magnum opus The Four Books of Architecture remains a classic in architectural history. Centered on "geometry, harmony, life," this exhibition presents Palladio’s concept of transforming architecture into a cultural carrier that "bears historical emotions and connects the past and present."
As a key Sino-Italian cultural exchange project, the exhibition allows Chinese audiences to engage closely with European classic architectural aesthetics. Located in Hall 4 (South) of the NMC.
