The Chinese Museum of Women and Children is presenting the 2nd Chinese Women Artists Exhibition, demonstrating the remarkable contribution women have made to China's art world.

The exhibition assembles works from China's first-class women artists born after the 1930s. Varied in styles and subjects, these works document their makers' life experiences.

At the hall center, Tao Aimin's large installation, Woman River, created in 2005, draws the most attention. The work is an arrangement of 56 washing boards collected from rural China into the shape of a river. Portraits of their users, who are all elderly women, are painted on every board, reflecting the devotion of women throughout history.

9 am-5 pm, except Monday, until April 26. The Chinese Museum of Women and Children, 9 Beijige Road, Dongcheng district, Beijing. 010-6526-9678.
