Age: Artist Donates Exhibition Proceeds to Bushfire Appeal
January 9, 2002
A Falun Gong artist has announced she'll donate all
the proceeds from her exhibition in Sydney to the NSW
Bushfire Relief Fund. The Australia-based artist, Zhang Cui Ying, said she
was illegally imprisoned in China for more than eight
months for supporting the Falun Gong spiritual
movement. In a statement announcing her donation, Zhang is
described as "no stranger to tragedy" in explanation
of her support for those who have suffered in the
fires. Zhang's exhibition is being held at the Chinese
Gardens, Darling Harbour. http://www.theage.com.au/breaking/2002/01/09/FFXAUXMZ7WC.html
