REMARKS:

Dr. Yannick Lintz, President of The Guimet National Museum of Asian Arts, reveals how innovative museum design forges new pathways for cultural dialogue. As 2024 commemorates both the Franco-Chinese Year of Cultural Tourism and 60 years of diplomatic relations, Guimet reimagines the museum experience through contemporary design and storytelling. Dr. Lintz demonstrates how thoughtful curation and spatial design bridge Eastern heritage and Western perspectives, transforming traditional museum spaces into dynamic platforms for cross-cultural exchange. Following her presentation, Dr. Lintz will engage in a Fireside Chat with Jiang Qiong Er to explore their "Guardians of Time" collaboration at Guimet.
