Huang Yao (1917-1987) was an acclaimed Chinese cartoon artist in the 1930s.
His works inspired Chinese in their fight against the Japanese during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Later, he played an important role in the introduction of Chinese calligraphy and painting to Southeast Asia. More than 160 works by Huang will be displayed at Shanghai Art Museum.
A collection of his original drawings will then be handed over to the museum.
