China in the last decade


An photo exhibition featuring China's progress in varous fields over the past decade has opened in Beijing. The month-long show details achievments in, among others, political, economic, cultural and social sectors.

As the 18th national congress of the Chinese Communist Party draws near, China is looking back over the past ten years. At the Beijing Exhibition center, thousands of photos are on display, demonstrating the country's development.

Some of the moments, such as the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008, the manned Shenzhou-9 space mission in 2012, are impressing many.

Visitor said, "China's science and technology development is so fast, even as a factory worker I've seen technology quickly upgrade over the ten years, and instead of manual operation, much factory work is now controlled by computers."

Visitors are also attracted by the Olympic Games section. Four years ago, China hosted the event for the first time. The nation was eager to show the world its keenness and readiness.

Visitor said, "I was so excited at the time. Even now the memory is fresh. I was a volunter during the Olympic Games and I'll always be proud of that."

China takes pride in its social welfare development. The number of people covered by basic medical care has risen from just 100 million in 2003, to more than 95 percent of its population by the end of last year. These photos document some of the step by step improvements in community service, low income aid and care for the seniors.

The exhibition is employing new media including video clips and electronic devices to make the show more vivid and impressive in reviewing China's past ten years.

Top 10 nude models in China

Image
Nudity in art and nude modeling were introduced into China almost one century ago. When famed Chinese painter Liu Haisu became the first to initiate a figure drawing course at a Shanghai art school in 1917, he immediately triggered public uproar and widespread controversy in regards to nude modeling. Since then, China has become much more open to nude modeling, especially when we think back on the 1928 slashing of a nude model by her father for posing for internationally renowned Chinese photographer Lang Jingshan who took the country's first artistic nude shot . However, even though the Chinese have gotten more at ease with the idea of modeling in the nude since 1928, it still remains quite the controversial career path to take in China. Every time some nude picture appears, the public nudity debate gets stirred up again and sometimes violence may even ensue. Some think that it's shameful and the models just get naked for the so-called sake of art to make easy-money and ...
