As one of the major art activities of "Painting in Guilin", the exhibition of young artists' works is held through solicitation and selection. It is hosted by the Guangxi Artists Association, Guilin Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism, and organized by the Guangxi Lijiang Painting School Promotion Association, Guilin Art Museum, and Guilin Artists Association. Compared to the successful "Painting in Guilin" invitation exhibition, the works of young artists are more hopeful, and they have not let down this high expectation

In the wave of learning and implementing the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China across the country, and in the current context of fully implementing the important instructions of General Secretary Xi Jinping's inspection of Guangxi, and in the grand theme of building a world-class tourist city in Guilin, the participation of art in shaping mainstream values is unquestionable and should also be the responsibility and responsibility of contemporary artists. However, as an important purpose of artistic expression, the realization of mainstream values should not be the only way. Times are changing, society is changing, and each generation has its own unique insights. The value of young artists lies in their participation in shaping mainstream values in their own way and experience, rather than constantly repeating the way they learn from their parents. On the contrary, if young artists abandon their vivid way of experience and participate in the narrative of mainstream values like "master fathers", it will bring two fatal misconceptions. If young people lack a profound experience of history, culture, and society, their works will lack the warmth of art, the thickness of history, and the depth of society. "False" will replace sincerity, unable to satisfy the audience's acceptance emotions, resulting in uniform artistic creation and potentially harming the construction of mainstream art. T
