Representative of the Ukraine Falun Gong Association Alexandra said that every artwork describes a story occurred to Falun Gong practitioners. It depicts the brutal persecution suffered by Falun Gong practitioners in China. Yet these practitioners demonstrate their firm belief of truth in the face of the persecution.

The Ukraine artist Aulaster said in the opening ceremony, “From the artworks of this “Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance” art exhibition, we can see these artists trying to inspire people’s conscience through art, the pursuit of belief and Falun Gong practitioners’ firm and unyielding spirit.”

Visitor Andrew said, “Every artwork is a master piece. The characters’ expressions in the paint are very life like and I feel a kind of strength. The artwork about the Chinese Communist regime’s organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners makes one’s heart feel very heavy.”

After viewing the “Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance” International Art Exhibition, many visitors left their feedback. They hoped the “Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance” International Art Exhibition could be extended and held in different places so that more people could learn “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance is good”.

The artworks displayed at the “Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance” International Art Exhibition were created by a group of renowned artists from different backgrounds. Through practising Falun Dafa, they obtained health in body and mind and greatly improved their spiritual well being. Their artworks displayed righteous, pure, compassionate and bright side of life by using traditional drawing techniques, bringing to people a feeling of righteousness and beauty. The artworks fully demonstrate the beauty of cultivation and expose the ongoing persecution of Falun Gong in China. They deliver the truth of “doing good and bad deeds would definitely be rewarded accordingly” and show Falun Gong practitioners’ firm and unyielding spirit in their belief and counter-persecution efforts.
