The Indra and Harry Banga Gallery at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) is pleased to present “A Glimpse of Tang Prosperity from Murals – The Exhibition Tour on Murals of the Tang Dynasty” from now until 27 February 2022.

This multimedia exhibition recreates an ancient Tang Dynasty tomb in which 42 exquisite imperial paintings from more than 1,300 years ago are projected using new multimedia technology. It was very well received in Taiwan and Macau prior to coming to Hong Kong. The three thematic animation zones – etiquette and ceremonies, hunting and leisure, and court life – offer a snapshot into unique aspects of life during the Tang Dynasty. Through the painted scenes, visitors can discover the ceremonies and etiquette of the imperial court, the imperial family’s leisure and hunting activities, and the music and dance performances presented in the palace during the Tang Dynasty. These exhibits offer viewers insights into social trends of the time, the lifestyles of nobles, and aesthetic and cultural interactions between China and other countries.

Venue address: Indra and Harry Banga Gallery, 18/F, Lau Ming Wai Academic Building
