Since its discovery, gold has fascinated humanity. And the women of the Ming dynasty<\/strong> would certainly agree.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The three centuries of rule by the imperial family (1368-1644) remain a favorite topic for many historians. Armed with extraordinary craftsmanship, Chinese artisans created works of art that are as precious as they are numerous.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thanks to the Ming dynasty, which ushered in a true economic and cultural renaissance, the diversity of furniture, paintings, and \u00a0<\/span><\/span>porcelain from China continues to captivate.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Starting September 18, the Guimet Museum<\/strong> will honor the adornments once worn by the women of the imperial court. These treasures, ultimate symbols of wealth, reflect the refined delicacy of Chinese goldsmithing. Worn in hairstyles and on the body, these ornaments allowed individuals to stand out with baroque patterns and exceptional gemstones.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From artisanal techniques to the hidden meanings of the motifs, gold will hold no more secrets for you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n From September 18, 2024, to January 13, 2025<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n This year, the Centre Pompidou<\/strong> is turning into a festive hall for a special anniversary. As the Surrealist movement celebrates its 100th anniversary<\/strong>, the Museum of Modern Art has curated a major exhibition to mark the occasion.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Titled “Surrealism”<\/strong>, this exhibition offers a total immersion in the movement led by artists such as Salvador Dal\u00ed, Ren\u00e9 Magritte, and Dora Maar<\/strong>. Born in 1924<\/strong> with the publication of the founding manifesto by Andr\u00e9 Breton<\/strong>, Surrealism brought a fresh perspective to all artistic fields.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n This multidisciplinary approach is reflected in the centennial exhibition, where paintings, drawings, films, photographs,<\/span> and literary documents come together to depict a movement that remains as fascinating as ever.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Visitors can stroll through a journey divided into 14 chapters<\/strong>, punctuated by poetry. Throughout the visit, the works of iconic Surrealist artists (Giorgio de Chirico, Max Ernst, Joan Mir\u00f3, Leonora Carrington, Ithell Colquhoun<\/strong>) offer a dreamlike dive into the Surrealist imagination. Finally, the centerpiece of this exhibition is undoubtedly the Manifesto<\/em> by Andr\u00e9 Breton, which laid the foundation of Surrealism,<\/span> exceptionally loaned by the National Library of France<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/magazine.luxus-plus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/phoenix.png\")
