Exhibition tour celebrates Olympic spirit

Since launching the first Beaux-Arts Olympiades in 2008 to celebrate the Beijing Olympic Games, the China National Society for the Promotion of Arts and Culture has turned this exhibition into a platform of international exchanges by organizing art exhibitions during the Summer and Winter Olympics and touring the world to uphold the Olympic spirit.

The new edition celebrating the Paris Summer Olympics will be unveiled at La Seine Musicale on Aug 8. It will show the works — paintings and calligraphy pieces — by 60 Chinese artists, juxtaposed with over 120 works by artists from other countries and regions.
