As an important part of the 2025 CAFAM Academic Season, the "Cultural Engine - CAFA International Art Museum Summit " will be held
at the Art Museum of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in the afternoon of March 30, 2025. As a gathering place and display window for culture, art museums not only undertake the functions of displaying and collecting artworks, but also actively participate in shaping the
vitality of the social economy. As an important carrier of culture, by hosting high-level art exhibitions and activities, art museums continuously inject impetus into the inheritance and development of culture. Art museums are the drivers of cultural innovation, the
hubs of cultural dialogue, and the experimental fields for future innovation. This summit hopes to take "Cultural Engine" as the theme
and focus on three major topics: "Diversified Curating and Knowledge Renewal", "Regional Dialogue and Global Collaboration", and "Technology Empowerment and Innovation Strategies", so as to discuss the development opportunities and challenges faced by art
museums in the new era.
