A child's natural sincerity and ways of thinking, which have been influenced little by adults, are gifts to the world. When they paint and sculpt, they rely not on skills but rather an instinct to reveal subtle feelings about their surroundings.
Like an Artist, an exhibition on now at the Cheng Center for Contemporary Art until Oct 7, shows children's artworks erupting with imagination and vitality.
It marks the first children's show at the gallery, inside Beijing's 798 art zone, as part of a research program it operates to examine the role of art and creation in the physical and mental development of an individual, as well as how a person perceives the world and develops aesthetic views, and how much families acknowledge the weight of art in a child's growth.
