Michael E. Busch Annapolis Library

The two dominant fine art systems of Eastern and Western painting modalities exemplify the principles of shared beauty. The elements and tenets of their forms will be compared and celebrated in an illustrative lecture and demonstration by renowned Chinese art scholars and artists, Zhai You and Fan Lei.
The program is presented by World Artists Experiences in cooperation with the Embassy of the Peoples Republic of China. The program is free, but donations are welcome. For Further information email wae@comcast.net
