Horse sculptures lasso spectators

These scenes unfold at the International Sculpture Art Exhibition recently held at Beijing's Inzone Harmony. Running from Jan 1 to Feb 28, throughout the Chinese New Year holiday, the exhibition brings together 75 sculptures by artists from China, Russia, and the United States. Admission is free, allowing visitors to encounter art while doing their shopping.

"It's an exhibition for the public,"Sun says.

Sun studied sculpture in Russia at the Saint Petersburg Repin Academy of Arts and the Saint Petersburg Stieglitz State Academy of Art and Design, earning a doctoral degree. He now works at the Chinese National Academy of Arts. The current exhibition features not only his work but also pieces by his mentors and peers.

In celebration of 2026 and the Year of the Horse, the mall's first floor is dedicated to equine sculptures.
