Terracotta Warriors start link to China

Parisian private museum director Restellini's connection with China started with a Terracotta Warriors show in 2008. When he flew to Xi'an in Shaanxi province, a year before the show, he was informed that the Louvre also wanted it. But his private museum secured the project.

Restellini's Pinacotheque is rare in Paris where most museums are publically funded or supported by foundations.

"I think I paid enough respect to my Chinese cooperators. Maybe the Louvre was just too arrogant," he says.
