In your heart, what does Qinyang look like?Is it hundreds of millions of years of vicissitudes, Shennong Mountain's thousands of peaks show, or spring full of yellow flowers and summer lush, autumn to enjoy red leaves and winter jade forest?Perhaps you can find the answer at the exhibition of Shang Lifei's art works held in the comprehensive exhibition hall on the first floor of the Culture and Art Center.

I didn't go to a professional art school, because I love it, so I never stop writing in Danqing. It took more effort than others to achieve the effect it is today. In the future, I will continue to love my hometown, love the landscape of Qinyang, and make greater contributions to my hometown. Teacher Shang Lifei said. The years have been wind and rain, and the fireworks have become songs in all seasons. Among the more than 90 works on display today, the landscape of Qinyang jumps on the paper, allowing us to see the changes of the times, the progress of Qinyang, the beauty of mountains and rivers, and the beauty of culture. Here, I also expect Mr. Shang to continue to use the brush in his hand to express the aspirations of the people of Qinyang, the power of creation, and the fruits of development, and show the spiritual atmosphere of the new era in an all-round panoramic way.
