A tribute to art and its ability to transcend time and foster dialogue between peoples:
all this is in the sculpture by the Chinese artist donated to the city of Vinci in 2020. The work consists of two bronzes depicting Leonardo da Vinci and the father of modern Chinese painting, Qi Baishi, engaged in a sort of hypothetical conversation beyond time and geographical distance. The sculpture is located on the terrace in front of Palazzina Uzielli. A choice which, as well as giving the statues visibility, also places them harmoniously in the surrounding landscape, which is still intact.
This choice not only gives the statues visibility, but also places them harmoniously in the surrounding landscape, which is still similar to the one that formed the background to Leonardo’s birth and childhood.
