The facilities at the exhibition hall were excellent, and the several dozen works of art gave the hall a solemn and noble look. Falun Gong practitioners placed fresh flowers in front of the painting, "Image of Buddha." A representative for Russia's Centre for Safeguarding Human Rights, Mr. Banamaliaofu, has been supporting Falun Gong over the past ten years. At the opening ceremony, he wished the exhibition a big success. Veronica, a Russian practitioner of Korean nationality, sang a song.
The pieces on display were created by fifteen accomplished Chinese and Western painters from different countries. Through Falun Gong cultivation, they have gained good physical and mental health, enlightened to the truth of the universe, and found the answers to life and art that they had long been searching for. Using traditional, realistic, and exquisite artistic technique, the painters depicted the beauty of Falun Gong and the true stories that have happened to practitioners, revealing the rich and profound content of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance."
The "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" Art Exhibit in Russia has been successfully held in Pyatigorsk, Krasnoyarsk, New Russia City and Rostov. The show in Moscow will continue for one month.
