The first Breathe Life Arts Exhibition debuted in one of the most prestigious museums in Beijing, Today’s Art Museum, in September 2011, and was well received with significant media coverage and good public attendance. It was such a phenomenal success that a second show was encored at the Siemens Art Space at 798, Beijing the following month in October, 2011.
