The National Art Museum of China invites viewers to appreciate the beauty of calligraphy and literature with a display of more than 100 refined couplets, or yinglian. The recently created exhibits, by such established calligraphers as Ouyang Zhongshi and Wang Xuezhong, fall into three categories of couplets. They are composed to celebrate Spring Festival, or to admire natural and human landscapes, or to express emotions and opinions on social affairs. They vary in styles including xingshu (semi-cursive or running script), caoshu (cursive script), kaishu (regular script) and zhuanshu (seal script).

9 am-5 pm, no admission after 4 pm, Jan 18-Feb 24.

National Art Museum of China, 1 Wusi Dajie, Dongcheng district, Beijing.
