Liang Jiang, former deputy director of the National Art Museum of China has been concerned about the development of Foshan arts for a long time. He believed the exhibition reflects the exploration and achievements of Foshan art world, "11 young artists in professional colleges have received systematic professional training, and their works reflect their real feelings in life. Displaying the art with unique art language is a new trend of Foshan art industry, and it embodies the vitality in Foshan."
