"From Dunhuang, we can see a microcosm of traditional Chinese rituals, philosophy and aesthetics, as well as dancing, fine garments and craftsmanship," Lou said.
Several bowls from the Tang Dynasty (618-907), which were unearthed from the caves, have been chosen to be displayed at the exhibition.
"We can thus have a dialogue with the ancient painters and feel the warmth of history," Lou said.
Life-size replicas of three caves are also set up at the exhibition to bring an immersive experience for visitors to better understand the evolution of Dunhuang art throughout history.
The Palace Museum has contributed 47 artifacts from its collection to the exhibition, echoing the themes of the Dunhuang relics.
