Another outcome of the bilateral relationship is that Beijing and Dublin, Ireland's capital, are sister cities in the Beijing-Dublin twinning program.
"We are both cities that value and nurture culture. Culture is central to human development, central to our quality of life and our relationship with each other," said Nial Ring, lord mayor of Dublin, in a welcome penned for the exhibition's program.
On Monday, the artists will participate in a panel discussion, "What has James Joyce Ever Done to You?" at 7:30 pm at The Bookworm in Sanlitun. Professor Fu Hao of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, who has translated all of Joyce's verse, will lead the event.
