Description: a cura dell'Istituto Italiano per l'Africa e l'Oriente. Milano: Electa, 2011. 24cm., pbk., 142pp. illus., most in color. Exhibition held at Terme di Diocleziano, Roma. Summary: In a world preview, the exhibition "a Oriente: cittą, uomini e dei sulle Vie della Seta" is curated by the Italian Institute for African and Oriental Studies, under the scientific supervision of Gherardo Gnoli, Pierfrancesco Callieri and Francesco D'Arelli. Based on a Chinese map more than 30 meters long, dating from the early 16th century, recently found in Japan, the exhibition will examine the cultural and religious overlaps along the Silk Route, with scenery designed by Studio Azzurro. Almost as if unrolling a scroll, the exhibition will take the visitor on a fascinating and seemingly endless journey, illustrated with virtual material and a selection of important artifacts of various kinds, through the cities which animated the route from Mare Nostrum to Beijing between the 2nd century BC and the 14th century AD.
