Pastoral Austria

For 50 years until his death, Austrian expressionism artist Werner Berg (1904-81) lived as a farmer and painter at a remote mountain farm, which he operated with his wife and friend. His passion for rural life enabled him to observe the subtle changes of nature and farmers' everyday life in a peaceful circumstance. Berg's more than 70 oil paintings and 16 woodcuts are now on show at the National Art Museum of China, offering a touch of simplicity and tranquility.

9 am-5 pm, no admission after 4 pm, until Jan 14. National Art Museum of China, 1 Wusi Dajie, Dongcheng district, Beijing. 010-6400-1476.
