Five Asian cities including Kyoto, Hangzhou, Bombay, Bangkok, Teheran and Istanbul have been chosen for a complete on-the-spot survey. Based on a great number of visits from local contemporary and folk artists, a grand Asian Art exhibition and International forum focuses on the way to Asian modernization.
