  On the afternoon of December 31, Yang Feiyun, the director of the Oil Painting Institute of Chinese Academy of Arts and director of the Oil Painting and Art Committee of the Artists Association of China, who just finished his tour in Gansu, came to the National Museum to visit the "Oil Painting Exhibition of Han Yuchen and the West".
 


 

  Into the exhibition hall of displaying Han Yuchen’s Tibet theme paintings, Director Yang faced a few large-size works of the shepherd scenes, looking them in different angles and then said emotionally: " it is difficult to control the hue of the large-size scenes, which is a test to painter’s ability. Han Yuchen not only reached this height, but also depicted it very vivid. It is very rare.” When he saw works such as "Playing Aga" and "Catching Dung" , which showed the daily life and working of Tibetan people and knew that Han Yuchen had gone to more than 20 Tibetan areas, Director Yang said: "Mountains of Tibet are high and anoxic; there are forbidden zones of life. It really takes will and perseverance to go to Tibetan areas for so many times. Han Yuchen can capture this touching details because of the accumulation of such life. Life is the source of art!”
 


 

  In Hall 3, after carefully reading Han Yuchen's collections of Western oil paintings in France, Belgium and Germany in the 19th century, Director Yang spoke highly of Han Yuchen's contribution to the development of China's oil painting industry and decided to select some of the collections for the Chinese art Institute of Oil Painting Exhibition on display in order to allow more artists to learn from this.
