Zhang Cuiying Painting Exhibition in London Concludes (Photos)

UK Dafa practitioner

(Clearwisdom.net) Zhang Cuiying's 4-day art exhibit in London from April 21 to 25, 2002 has concluded. For the first three days of the exhibit the artwork was displayed in October Exhibition Hall in London's downtown. With over 30 of her outstanding paintings on display, the UK Falun Gong Association held a press conference. The Vice- Chairman of Friends of Falun Gong in Europe and the director of the UK Falun Gong Association each delivered a speech during the press conference. The Vice Chairman said, "Her paintings clearly display an inner peace, which she has been pursuing through Falun Gong, and which contrast starkly with the evil brutality of the Jiang regime in its persecution of Falun Gong. Falun Gong practitioners pursue a harmony with nature and try to assimilate themselves with the principles of the universe, Zhen-Shan-Ren." Ms. Zhang recounted her suffering during 8 months of imprisonment and torture in China for upholding Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance. The reporters present were moved to tears.

The exhibit was well visited. The photos of The Journey of Falun Dafa were simultaneously displayed. People were surprised and could not understand Jiang regime's evil persecution after they saw Ms. Zhang's beautiful paintings and the persecution photos in the Journey of Falun Dafa.

The exhibition wound up its' last two days in a church on the busiest street in London's downtown. More people came to see the paintings and photos. The Chairman of London Art Association and the person in charge of Canada Worldwide Culture Exchange also attended. The latter invited Ms. Zhang to attend the tea party of world famous artists to be held in London in July this year and asked her to hold another art exhibit at the party.

The visitors came to know the truth of Falun Gong when viewing the paintings. They looked at the photos of the Journey of Falun Dafa and were shocked at Jiang regime's brutal persecution. At first many looked on in disbelief. People asked for Dafa literature and more information about the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. A few people even wanted to learn Falun Gong and asked for contact phone numbers for practice sites.

As the exhibition concluded and the paintings were being packed away many people were still coming to visit. They regretted that the exhibition had ended. A gentleman came to wish Ms. Zhang success in exhibiting her paintings in other countries and wished her a peaceful trip.
