A special exhibition themed on ballet opened today at the National Library in Beijing, featuring more than 100 pieces of artwork from China and abroad, including photos and oil paintings of famous ballet dancers.
As part of the Zhongguancun International Youth Arts Festival, the exhibition boasts artwork from well-known artists and photographers, as well as exquisite ballet tutus from renowned French ballet company Repetto. Visitors can also find many worn-out pointe shoes at the exhibition, each carrying a ballerina's hard but sweet memories. (Photo/Courtesy of China Ballet Magazine)
