Chongqing - The Galaxy Museum of Contemporary Art in Chongqing hosted the contemporary art exhibition "Connecting Point", which is open free from April 7 to May 7.
The exhibition will showcase the works of three Italian artists residing in China: Alice Melloni, Barbara Vaccaro, and Orlando Daga. The collective artworks presented in this exhibition result from a connection between their artistic and personal research and the Chinese context in which they are immersed, characterized by a millenary history and culture.

The exhibition's title, "Connecting Point," highlights the role of art as a connecting thread capable of linking different viewpoints, experiences, stories, and paths. As a universal language, art allows us to communicate even where language fails.
