The exhibition The Perfect Path: Marco Polo’s ‘City of Heaven’ recently opened at the China Academy of Art to mark the 700th anniversary of Marco Polo’s death.

The exhibition, in honor of the famous Venetian explorer and cultural ambassador, was organized by the China Academy of Art and the Venice Biennale. On August 8, the China Academy of Art and the Venice Biennale signed a three-year Memorandum of Understanding, and this exhibition is the first collaborative project after that agreement.

The exhibition features work by contemporary Chinese artists who explore imagery and innovation rooted in the thousand-year-old tradition.

The exhibition will open to the public from Monday and is expected to run until January 10, 2025.
