Two complementary Beijing exhibitions by Russian and Chinese artists commemorate victory over fascism. Lin Qi reports.
Zhang Qing nearly burst into tears while visiting a dozen Russian museums earlier this year.
The National Art Museum of China's research department head traveled with colleagues to Moscow, Saint Petersburg (previously Leningrad) and Volgograd (earlier Stalingrad) to scour storerooms for Russian World War II artworks for his museum's ongoing exhibition, Victory: 1945-2015!.
