Exhibition—Gold from Dragon City: Masterpieces of Three Yan from Liaoning
China Institute Gallery presents a landmark exhibition "Gold from Dragon City: Masterpieces of Three Yan from Liaoning, 337–436" on view from September 5, 2024 through January 5, 2025.
Nearly 70 years of archeological excavations in the capital of Three Yan state — Dragon City (longcheng), today’s Chaoyang in Liaoning province — have revealed extraordinary treasures, such as the dazzling golden headdress called buyao. The landmark exhibition “Gold from Dragon City: Masterpieces of Three Yan from Liaoning, 337–436” presents these precious artworks and cultural objects for the first time in the United States. Featured objects include sculptures, bronze mirrors, inkstones, imperial seals, and ceramic vessels, with highlights of gold ornaments and equestrian objects. The exhibition attempts to illustrate and revive the faded history of ethnic integration and cultural exchange along the Steppe-Silk Road that transformed northern China more than 1,600 years ago.
Organized by China Institute Gallery and Liaoning Provincial Museum. Directed and executed by Willow Weilan Hai, Senior Vice President of China Institute in America, Director and Chief Curator of China Institute Gallery; Curated by Dr. Liu Ning, Deputy Director of Liaoning Provincial Museum, with assistance from Liaoning Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, and Chaoyang County Museum.
