EXHIBITION OF CHINESE PAPER CUTS

About 300 exquisite Chinese paper-cuttings will be on show at the

City Museum and Art Gallery in a special exhibition opening on Friday, January 26.

This group of paper-cuttings are selected from the Museum Collection.

They form a good representation of a popular folk art which, made with simple

tools and material, are full of life and simplicity and reflect the industrious

life and sentiments of the peasantry.

The paper-cuts are from various districts of China and show distinct

regional features and styles. These vary from the simple and rustic examples

from the Northern provinces to the elegant and complex ones from the South.

The exhibition is a special contribution by the City Museum in celebration

of the Lunar New Year, and will be on display until February 18.
