Chinese cartoonist and caricaturist Ding Cong
The Library of Congress and George Mason University are sponsoring a one day symposium and exhibition showing Ding Congs life and work.
When:
October 20, 2009 8:30am to 4:30pm
To comprehend a tumultuous history like that of twentieth century China, we can benefit greatly from the acute observations of a creative artist active during the period. Ding Cong (1916-2009), until recently Chinas most famous living cartoonist and artist, offers that perspective. The Library of Congress and George Mason University are sponsoring a one day symposium and exhibition showing Ding Congs life and work. The morning conference at the Library of Congress will include speakers intimately familiar with Dings life and work. In the afternoon, the Mason Gallery at GMU will display 50 cartoons and artwork and include more commentary. These events will celebrate the life and works of this artist whose cogent insights illuminate Chinas volatile century.
