Where Mountains and Rivers Meet in Time

As we approach Chinese New Year, we find that while the new wave of epidemic has left us with a desire to get close to landscape, yet we do not have the convenience of visiting.  Why not take a trip to the ancient landscapes of mountains and rivers here at Keystone?

The 2022 Chinese New Year special exhibition, " Where Mountains and Rivers meet in Time” opens 17 January at the Primary School Gallery. The exhibition includes: a complete collection of Song paintings donated by the families of alumni of the Class of 2021, a 3D version of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" by Mr. John Han, high quality replica scrolls from the library collection, as well as calligraphy, travelogues, poetry, books on tea, artefacts and customs of daily life related to ancients’ travels to the mountains and water.

The writing and ink are exquisite, the poetry beautiful, philosophies lofty and the city bustling. Let's have a peaceful Chinese New Year among nature, art and humanities.
