Anhui park celebrates public art

The giant rubber ducks that recently captivated citizens of Hong Kong and Beijing have ignited a new passion for public art. Now art enthusiasts hope the love will keep burning through other channels.

Sculpture, one of the major public art forms, is thriving thanks to China's rapid urban development, artists said at the recent opening ceremony of the 3rd Liu Kaiqu Award International Sculpture Exhibition in Wuhu city in Anhui province.

The exhibition runs year-round and is free to the public.
