Art show aims to foster peace

ATHENS - The world may currently be in a constant state of flux and developing at a rapid pace, but it means nothing without peace. That is the message that representatives of the China Artists Association were looking to convey at the inauguration of an exhibition entitled Art and Peace.

The exhibition, which invites contemporary artists from China to display work that formed part of the project "Journey of Chinese art in the world", opened on May 10 at the State Museum of Contemporary Art in the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki.

The exhibition, launched in 2016, has already been successfully held in Denmark, Italy, Finland, Georgia and at the headquarters of the European Union in Brussels.
