With the idea of building “an art museum without walls and fluid art academy”, the Pearl Art Museum has delivered a series of “Read Art in Books” lectures since the end of September in 2019.
“Read Art in Books” is designed to invite an expert each time to tell an art story with a book and instruct in systematic and interesting art appreciation. Based on the sharing from the experts, it enables ordinary people to have a glimpse of the most advanced and classic art research and works and have the knowledge and mind-set for appreciating art works.
《清明上河图》是中国人最熟悉的中国画之一，其中所蕴含的图像密码着实让人着迷。然而，你真的深入了解这幅传世名作吗？“开卷有艺”之《清明上河图》带你“读取”近千年来中国城市和建筑形态的变迁。

“Read the Paintings” is the first thematic unit of series of “Read Art in Books” lectures held by the Pearl Art Museum and Shanghai Literature & Art Publishing House. In this unit, we begin with artistic appreciation of well-known classic painting and calligraphy in ancient China and extend to explore the history, society, humanity and folk behind the creation of these works. The Pearl Art Museum is looking forward to discover new perspective of appreciating and reading art in a way of “exploring old paintings from new perspective”.
