The China-Russia young artists' dialogue on innovation and exchange was held April 26 in Moscow, marking a significant step in deepening bilateral cultural cooperation. Centered on the Guangzhou Acrobatic Troupe's production "Swan," the event explored the integration of Eastern acrobatics and Western ballet.

Experts from both nations engaged in high-level discussions on breaking artistic boundaries through what they called "organic fusion" of aesthetic and emotional expression. The forum also highlighted Guangzhou's role as a cultural hub within the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Participants emphasized that such forums drive fresh momentum in the performing arts, reflecting a shared commitment to mutual learning and the innovative development of classical heritage.
