Unfurling the scroll of French fashion history in Hong Kong

Lighting has been carefully designed not only with viewing in mind, but also to avoid excessive exposure. To properly protect these precious cultural relics, in mid-October this year, after the end of the three-and-a-half-month exhibition in Hong Kong, all the exhibits will be returned to France for safekeeping.

Hong Kong singer Karen Mok recorded the exhibition narration in Cantonese, Mandarin and English, which visitors may listen to on-site or online.

"It was fun and creative, and I learned a lot from it," Mok says, adding that she was honored to be chosen for the job.

The singer says she has always enjoyed visiting museums and is proud to have the Palace Museum in her home city.

"Hong Kong is such a unique place where Chinese and Western cultures collided and blended, resulting in creativity and inspiration," Mok says. "I hope people from all over the world will be able to better understand our culture."

Over the past two years, the Hong Kong Palace Museum has received more than 2.5 million visitors.

Ng says that the exhibitions have included both traditional artifacts and contemporary art, and that visitors are getting used to this new mix.

He hopes to deepen cultural exchange between China and other countries in the future, by staging exhibitions overseas and working with museums abroad on joint exhibitions.

"It will be wonderful!" Ng says, excitedly anticipating the future cultural dialogues.
