Olympic spirit celebrated at Beijing exhibition

The Olympic Fine Arts exhibition brings together 800 works of art, including posters, paintings, photos and sculptures in celebration of the spirit of the Olympic Games, the beauty of Chinese art and the role of art in promoting the Olympic Games and connecting people around the world.

Organized by the China National Society for the Promotion of Arts and Culture, the exhibition was launched in 2008 to mark the Beijing Olympic Games by showing artwork from across the world.

It has been held five times since, both at home and abroad. The current show is being held at the Mizuo Plaza in Beijing through March 31.
