Fashion chief shows how art brings people together

Since then, the two bronze items have been on display at The Road to Rejuvenation, a long-term thematic exhibition at the National Museum of China.

"As my father said to me once, the best way to protect and to preserve art is to make it visible to the public. If you keep it for yourself, no one sees it," Fran?ois-Henri Pinault tells China Daily.

For this trip, he was not only to see the two sculptures, but also to attend the premiere of a documentary, The Long Journey Home.
