和
An Exhibition & Academic Forum on the Visual History of Christianity in China使命在中国艺术中的呈现 · 画展与学术论坛
Overview概览
Embrace 和 uses visual art to make the localization of Christianity in China visible, intelligible, searchable, and reusable. A scholarship-grounded public program, it links past and present, East and West, research and society — bringing together Christian iconography and Chinese symbols to reduce misinterpretation and foster understanding. 「Embrace 和」以视觉艺术为载体，系统呈现基督宗教在中国的本地化历程，让历史图像「被看见、能理解、可检索、可再用」。作为以学术为支撑的公共文化项目，它连接过去与当下、东方与西方、研究与社会，融汇基督宗教图像与中国符号，减少误读、促进理解。
