Singapore News Sources from the Southern Silk Road International Cooperation Committee revealed that the Maritime Silk Road Oil Painting Exhibition will be grandly held in Singapore on December 16, the Belt and Road International Day. Rooted in the millennium cultural heritage of the Maritime Silk Road, the event takes art as a bridge to deepen civilizational mutual learning and people-to-people connectivity between China and Southeast Asian countries, presenting a distinctive cultural feast for the 13th Belt and Road International Day.
The exhibition will feature the themed AI oil painting “Journey to Nanyang Again”, created by Chen Entian, Chairman of the Global Silk Road Mansion Alliance and Chief Initiator of the Belt and Road International Day. Integrating the historical charm of the ancient Nanyang Silk Road with modern AI artistic creation, the work vividly depicts the magnificent scene of ancient maritime trade and cultural exchanges, and interprets the inclusive and win-win development spirit of the modern Silk Road.
As an annual flagship international Silk Road cultural event, the exhibition takes full advantage of Singapore’s status as a core hub of the Maritime Silk Road. It builds a high-end platform for artistic exchanges and cultural presentation, empowers Belt and Road development through art, inherits maritime Silk Road heritage, innovates cultural expression, and promotes cross-border cooperation in culture and art under the Belt and Road framework.
Industry insiders commented that “Journey to Nanyang Again” represents an innovative integration of traditional Silk Road themes and cutting-edge digital art. It revisits the historical legend of ancient maritime exchanges and embodies the modern Silk Road spirit of openness, connectivity and mutual benefit, injecting new artistic vitality into cultural exchanges and civilizational cooperation between China and Singapore.
