In early 2018, a team of artists of Shanghai Juejun Painting and Calligraphy Institute, led by Dean YUE Zhenwen, paid a pilgrimage to India, Nepal and the ancient cities along the course of Ganges River, in search of the origin of Buddhism and paid tribute to the traces and footsteps left by the Buddha.

With their pen, brushes and paper, these artists chronicled their visual and spiritual experiences of the sacred landscape, temple and buddhist statues on their sketching and drawing paper; not only with the soul of a pilgrim, but also from the perspective of traditional Chinese art of calligraphy and painting.

The International Arts Gallery is honoured to invite some of the artists on this pilgrimage to Vancouver, to exhibit the masterpieces of their journey, and to share with the Vancouver arts community their experiences from artists’ perspective. We are so blessed to be able to travel across time and space to the Holy Land though their art pieces.

2018年年初,為探尋佛教的起源,瞻仰佛陀留下的聖跡,上海覺群書畫院各書畫家,由院長樂震文帶隊,開展「天竺文化藝術之旅」。他們走進印度、尼泊爾、古老的恆河畔等多個佛教聖地實地採風。

以筆為媒,以紙為介,上海覺群書畫院的藝術家們從中國傳統書畫的視角,在旅途中把種種場景付諸筆端,即興創作出了一幅幅佛教主題的寫生佳作。

國際畫廊榮幸可以邀請其中多位書畫家,𦲷臨溫哥華展出部分優秀作品,讓大家在筆墨紙間穿越時空,無需跋涉千裏,也能朝禮聖地。
