After the meeting, the delegation from Sanya visited the Spanish Art Association and the BAU School of Art and Design in Barcelona, discussing cooperation directions in areas such as exhibitions of Chinese and Western cultures and arts, art auctions and transactions, and appraisal and restoration. Sanya Central Business District can rely on the academic resources of the Spanish Art Association and the BAU School of Art and Design in Barcelona, as well as the collection demands of the Chinese market, to jointly plan special auctions to promote cross-border circulation of artworks. Tanja Glass, the president of the Spanish Art Association, said, "The diversity and innovation of traditional Chinese intangible cultural heritage are astonishing. The Spanish Art Association looks forward to becoming a bridge connecting Chinese and Western cultures."
