An exhibition of Chinese paintings opened Monday at the China Cultural Center in Tokyo, attracting many Japanese and Chinese art figures and visitors.
With the theme of 'China in Spring,' the exhibition showcases a variety of paintings by over 20 Chinese artists, offering a comprehensive demonstration of the creativity, quality, and artistic style of contemporary Chinese ink painting.
At the exhibition's opening ceremony, Shinako Tsuchiya, director-general of the International Bureau of Japan's Liberal Democratic Party and also a member of the House of Representatives, said such an event will promote friendly exchanges between Japan and China.
"I feel a great warmth in all the works. I believe that this warmth is very important for Japan-China exchanges, and I think it will make the relationship between Japan and China warmer and warmer," Tsuchiya told reporters.
In the exhibition, a peony painting created by Wang Xiaoyan, president of the Yanhe Chinese Painting Society, was particularly eye-catching, which skillfully blended the charm of Chinese painting with the delicate style of Japanese painting, fully demonstrating the artistic charm of the fusion of Chinese and Japanese cultures.
"Peony flowers give people a feeling of spring as they are colorful, beautiful and spectacular. So this painting is also in line with the 'China in Spring' theme," said Wang.
For many years, Wang has been committed to the promotion of Chinese painting overseas, especially in Japan.
By founding the Yanhe Chinese Painting Society, she shares Chinese painting skills with Japanese enthusiasts and fosters cultural exchanges between people of the two countries.
