Nobel Literature Gao Xingjian is a chair professor of NTNU and has received an honorary doctorate from NTNU. In 2021, NTNU Library established the Gao Xingjian Center, which houses precious manuscripts, prints, and documents donated by Gao Xingjian, to emphasize Professor Gao and NTNU’s deep academic connection over the years and promote research on the literature and art of Gao Xingjian.

“The universal value of his works, the unforgettable insights, and the rich wit of his language have opened up new avenues for Chinese novels and artistic plays.” -Laudatory address in 2000, Swedish Royal Academies
“His works integrate the thousands of years of wisdom of China and Asia, while wonderfully absorbing the great classics of Europe, blending the East and the West, which is a rare and precious feat.” -Laudatory address, 2018 Premio Roma
