Art lovers can see sculptures from 20 African countries - most of which have never been displayed in China - at an ongoing exhibition at the Shanghai Urban Planning Exhibition Center.

The exhibition, 2018 Exhibition of Sculpture Art from Twenty African Countries, which runs through April 15, features 150 traditional and modern sculptures, such as wood, stone and bronze carvings.

Photos of African scenery by Xiao Ge, a world-class wildlife photographer, are also being shown along with the sculptures.
