An Art Exhibition featuring Chinese women artists was unveiled yesterday at the United Nations Compound in Beijing to celebrate the 61st Anniversary of the United Nations and the UN Day, in partnership with the Three Quarters Art Gallery.

 

 

“The United Nations is making strong efforts to harness the power of Chinese culture to raise awareness on pressing development challenges in China and mobilize support from all sectors of the society to address these challenges,” said Khalid Malik, UN Resident Coordinator and UNDP Resident Representative in China.

 

“This exhibition is aimed to provide access to the voice of Chinese women artists on this special occasion in an effort to empower women and promote gender equity in China,” he added.

 

The Exhibition features 14 China’s women artists. According to Malik, this initiative is a continued effort of the UN Development Program to engage the culture sector in China to contribute to development work, as the culture sector plays an important and unique role in promoting the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals and an all-around Xiao Kang society.

 

 

UNDP has been active in exploring innovative ways of reaching out to China’s culture sector and engaging them in development. Some key activities include rotating art exhibitions of Chinese artists in the UNDP China Office, forging partnership with prominent Chinese artists for the MDG campaign, contribution fro, Chinese artists for the UNDP Environmental Awareness Program, and a donation from the prominent artist Huang Yongyu to the UN System in China of a painting featuring World Peace, which is displaced in the UN Large Conference Room of the UN Compound in Beijing.

 

The exhibition also coincides with the launch of the UN Resource and Information Center, located in the UN Compound in China. The Resource Center will be open to the general public and help them to learn and find more about the UN mandate and its initiatives and activities, in both China and worldwide.
