2025年5月29日至6月4日，国际著名艺术家、北美视觉艺术研究院院长盖亚·叶丽博士（Dr. Lily Gaia Ye）即将在日本东京都美术馆举办其大型个展“古蜀玄境·千光金梦”。展览以九幅融合油画与综合媒材的神祇图像为核心，贯穿古蜀文明与全球神话体系，交汇青铜意象、星体秩序与远古符号，借助图像逻辑与哲思算法，展开一场跨越时空与文化的视觉叙事，呈现人类文明记忆的当代表达。

展览理念为“艺术与考古同行，唤醒沉睡的文明记忆”，凝聚盖亚博士多年对三星堆文化的研究与重构。她以油画笔触演绎图像语言，通过结构重组与文明隐喻，构建出融合神话原型的视觉体系。神性意象、星象轨迹与少女形影交织于画布之上，形成一种跨越时间与感知的“玄境图式”。九幅作品合而为一，汇聚成一部跨文明、跨语言的艺术史诗。

作为当代艺术语境中首次以视觉形式呈现全球九大神祇形象的展览，本次个展涵盖东方道家、西方希腊、苏美尔、埃及、玛雅与佛教等传统，呈现出一幅超越性别、宗教与疆域的文明图谱。六位女性神祇与三位男性神祇在青铜语汇与光影结构中交相辉映，体现盖亚博士独特的文明观与图像哲学。

荣获第18届东京国际书画大赏金奖的核心作品“镜像太初”亦将在展中重磅亮相。作品以“东方哲思贯穿图像逻辑”之美学探索，获得国际艺术评论界高度评价，被誉为“连接古文明与未来世界的精神灯塔”。

东京都美术馆自1926年建馆以来，曾展出克里姆特、马蒂斯、梵高等世界大师作品，是亚洲最具影响力的美术馆之一。“古蜀玄境·千光金梦”此次在此登场，不仅是一次视觉艺术与历史文明的深度对话，更以人文精神回应数字时代的文化焦虑，展现出艺术在技术浪潮中拓展文化边界的能力与自觉。

作为GAIA元宇宙艺术博物馆创办人，盖亚·叶丽博士长期致力于以视觉艺术搭建人类认知与意识维度的桥梁。从米兰世博会到法国大皇宫，从CVPR国际AI艺术展到东京书画大赏，她以作品回应文明之问，也以思想拓展艺术视域，确立了古蜀文明与世界诸神话体系之间的精神坐标。一场跨越数千年文明的文化回响，即将在东京拉开帷幕。

[Press Release]

From May 29 to June 4, 2025, internationally acclaimedartist and President of the Greater American Institute of Art, Dr. Lily GaiaYe, will hold her large-scale solo exhibition Ancient Shu, Mystic Universe: AThousand Lights of Golden Dreams at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum in Japan.Centered on nine divine figures rendered in oil and mixed media, the exhibitiontraverses the ancient Shu civilization and global mythologies, weaving togetherbronze-age imagery, stellar geometry, and primordial symbols. Through a refinedorchestration of image logic and philosophical algorithms, Dr. Ye unfolds avisual narrative that transcends time and culture, presenting a contemporaryinterpretation of civilizational memory.

Guided by the curatorial concept “Art and Archaeology inTandem: Awakening the Sleeping Memory of Civilizations,” the exhibitionreflects Dr. Ye’s years of in-depth research and reimagining of the Sanxingduiculture. She employs painterly gestures to interpret image languages,reconstructing visual structures and embedding civilizational metaphors. Sacredimagery, celestial trajectories, and the silhouette of a maiden intertwine onher canvases, forming a “mystical visual realm” that bridges dimensions of timeand perception. The nine paintings unite to create an epic visual poem thatspeaks across civilizations and languages.

As the first exhibition in the contemporary art sceneto visually present nine archetypal deities from global ancient civilizations,this series encompasses spiritual lineages from Daoism, Greek mythology,Sumerian cosmology, Egyptian iconography, Mayan symbols, and Buddhisttraditions. Six female goddesses and three male deities appear throughout theseries, expressed through bronze visual syntax and layered light structures. Thesedivine figures transcend gender, faith, and geography, manifesting Dr. Ye’sunique vision of civilization and her deeply philosophical image theory.

The exhibition alsofeatures the award-winning centerpiece Echoes of Origin, which received theGold Prize at the 18th Tokyo International Calligraphy and Painting Awards.Celebrated for its fusion of Eastern philosophical thinking with visualstructure, the piece has been praised by international art critics as “aspiritual lighthouse linking ancient civilizations to imagined futures.”

Since its founding in 1926, the Tokyo Metropolitan ArtMuseum has hosted works by Gustav Klimt, Henri Matisse, Vincent van Gogh, andother world masters. As one of Asia’s most influential public art institutions,the museum provides a prestigious platform for Ancient Shu, Mystic Universe tounfold. The exhibition serves not only as a profound dialogue between visualart and historical civilizations, but also as a humanistic response to thecultural anxieties of the digital age—demonstrating art’s continued power toexpand cultural boundaries with both capacity and consciousness.

As the founder of the GAIA Meta Art Museum, Dr. Ye has longdedicated herself to using visual art to bridge the realms of human cognitionand consciousness. From the Milan World Expo to the Grand Palais in Paris, fromthe CVPR International AI Art Exhibition to Tokyo’s Grand Awards, she hasanswered the call of civilization through both image and thought. Her artisticwork extends the spiritual connections between the ancient Shu culture and themythic archetypes of world civilizations, establishing a conceptual axis acrossepochs and cultures.

A resonance of culture echoing across millennia isabout to unfold in Tokyo.
