Zang Xihua to hold exhibition

Some 65 works of celebrated Chinese artist Zang
Xihua will be displayed at the Crowne Plaza Hotel from Jan. 7 in
what will be Jakarta's first painting exhibition for 2002.

The painter, who currently resides in Singapore after spending
dozens of years in reform camps during China's Cultural
Revolution, is noted for his art works such as the Aftermath of
The Cultural Revolution and Martyrdom which portrays Chinese hero
Zhao Yiman during his execution by the Japanese during its
invasion of China.

The exhibition, ending Jan. 17, will display Zang's works from
the past year.

Stephen Hill, the local director of United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), will
open the exhibition. --JP
