Paraventi: Folding Screens from the 17th to 21st Centuries was an extensive exhibition curated by Nicholas Cullinan that investigated the histories and semantics of folding screens by tracing trajectories of cross-pollination between East and West, processes of hybridization between different art forms and functions, collaborative relationships between designers and artists, and the emergence of newly created works. The exhibition included more than seventy folding screens and a selection of new creations commissioned from more than fifteen international artists specifically for this project, including Marlene Dumas, Isa Genzken, Kerry James Marshall, Luc Tuymans, and Franz West.
