International Museum Day on May 18 is adding a digital twist to cultural heritage in the Chinese mainland. Museums are stepping beyond traditional displays to create immersive experiences that blend art and technology in exciting ways.
At the Liaoning Provincial Museum in Shenyang, visitors are invited into a digital dreamscape. In the exhibition “Elegance of the Tang and Song Dynasties: An Artistic World in Digital Scrolls,” state-of-the-art digital rendering transforms age-old masterpieces into interactive artworks. Picture white cranes soaring elegantly above Xuande Gate—the ceremonial entrance to Bianjing during the Northern Song Dynasty—and you’ve got a glimpse of this captivating journey. 🎨✨
This innovative fusion of technology and tradition is not only reviving history but also making art accessible and engaging for a tech-savvy generation. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a digital explorer, this experience shows how the past can be reimagined to inspire the future.
