The GBA Meets Shanghai: A Journey of Connection, Collaboration, and Creativity

By Shi Shi, SFC, 21st Century Business Herald

At the 24th China Shanghai International Arts Festival, the “Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area Cultural Week” is bringing together art that transcends language and borders, connecting the world through creativity.

Artists from France, Italy, Hong Kong, Macao, and Shenzhen shared their reflections — some praised the event for its creativity and the new experiences and connections it inspires; others saw it as a valuable opportunity to bring outstanding works to the global stage; and many hoped it would strengthen collaboration between the Greater Bay Area and arts festivals around the world.

From the Pearl River to the Huangpu River, an artistic dialogue spanning a thousand miles is unfolding — the vibrant culture of the Greater Bay Area is embracing the world with openness and creativity.
