In Shen Wei's utterly original style - blending dance, theater, ficual art, and Chinese opera - "The Re-Triptych Part III: The New Silk Road" integrates the old "Silk Road" with a hyper-modern, present-day Beijing, a bracing vision of the "new" China encountered during his time there chorographing the 2008 Olympic Opening Ceremonies.
