Cultural Projects
Clecit is deeply committed to the development of cultural projects that celebrate diversity and foster intercultural dialogue, building bridges between traditions, arts, and languages. Through a variety of initiatives, we promote mutual understanding and facilitate connections among artists, academics, and professionals from diverse fields, with a special focus on strengthening ties between Italy and China. We organize a wide array of events, including performances, exhibitions, workshops, concerts, conferences, artist residencies, and editorial projects—such as translations and publications—that highlight the cultural heritage of both nations. Our initiatives are distinguished by their innovative and inclusive nature, offering creatives, students, and researchers unparalleled opportunities for exchange and personal growth.
One of our most notable achievements is the establishment of the first Italy-China Illustration Center, a hub for cultural, artistic, and commercial exchange. This space brings together illustrators, designers, and industry professionals, encouraging collaboration and the exploration of new forms of expression that blend Italian and Chinese artistic traditions. Through these and many other projects, Clecit continues to pioneer new avenues for collaboration and cultural exchange, striving to make culture a powerful tool for fostering genuine connections between people and generations.
International Research and Educational Projects
Clecit organizes both short- and long-term educational exchanges, providing young students and teachers with the opportunity to engage in transformative experiences abroad. In addition, Clecit facilitates strategic and multidimensional collaborations between Chinese universities, academies of fine arts, conservatories, and Italian institutions. These partnerships promote the exchange of knowledge and best practices in education, art, music, and research. Clecit’s dedication to fostering cultural exchange is exemplified by its collaborations with leading Italian academies and institutions such as the Shanghai Art & Design Academy, Nanjing Normal University, and Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
The latter, supported by the Chinese government, stands as one of our key academic partners. With Clecit’s support, these partnerships have flourished, enhancing artistic and academic dialogue and leading to joint projects and significant international mobility for members of SADA. Students and teachers involved in these initiatives have had the chance to expand their horizons, immerse themselves in diverse cultural contexts, and explore innovative methodologies in research and artistic creation. Through Clecit, we also champion research and innovation by collaborating with institutions like Shanxi Media University, which has been recognized for its contributions to artistic education. Whether you are a student, an institution, or a professional, Clecit offers opportunities to participate in projects that celebrate diversity and build bridges between different worlds..
