The historic city of Xi'an in Northwest China's Shaanxi province, not only boasts abundant cultural heritage, such as the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin where an army of Terracotta Warriors has been unearthed, but also dozens of great artists who pioneered two art movements of 20th-century Chinese art — the Chang’an and the Yellow Soil schools of painting.

The Xi'an Academy of Fine Arts will hold an exhibition, titled Spirit of Time, to mark those artists who once lived and worked in Xi'an and diversified the art landscape of northwestern China.

The exhibition will open at Beijing's National Art Museum of China on Saturday and run through Dec 24. On show will be some 200 Chinese ink-brush paintings, oil paintings, lithographs and sculptures from the school’s collection.
