More than 60 figure and landscape paintings by Qinghai artist Jing Kewen are being displayed at the He Xiangning Art Museum from now until Dec. 2.
A graduate of the Xi'an Academy of Fine Arts, Jing has been inspired by old family photo albums and magazines for his paintings since the beginning of 1990.
Through this display of his works, art followers can not only see the formation of his peculiar art style, but also the rapid social changes China has gone through over the past two decades.
Born in Qinghai Province in 1965, Jing now lives in Beijing where he works as a professional artist.
