The collision and integration of Eastern and Western cultures were felt, showcasing the unique charm of multicultural interactions, stories of cultural exchange, open cooperation, and the search for common ground amidst cultural differences.

Senior officials, generals, and experts, as well as foreign ambassadors to China who attended the symposium, shared their views on Master Yun’s artworks from various angles, discussing the works’ reflections on the economy, culture, humanities, landscapes, and ecological civilisation, and the historical and contemporary significance contained within. They praised the symposium as a palace of cultural exchange and art appreciation, stirring resonance and encouragement in the art field both domestically and internationally, from technique to artistic concept. They unanimously agreed that cultural exchange serves as a bond to enhance world peace and friendship. By understanding and appreciating the art of different countries, people can establish deeper connections and friendships.

In recent years, China has prioritised the creative transformation and innovative development of traditional Chinese arts and culture. Against the backdrop of globalisation, cultural exchange and integration have brought us new opportunities. Firstly, it has fostered friendly relations and economic cooperation between countries. Cultural exchange and integration also help break down cultural barriers and prejudices, enhancing mutual understanding and respect among different cultures. Secondly, it has provided a broader stage and more possibilities for cultural innovation and development. The successful organisation of International Symposium On Master Yun’s Fengshui Art has stimulated the creativity and imagination of cultural and artistic creators, injecting new vitality into cultural innovation and development.
