Fan Yang said: "Our country is relatively strong in ice sports, and snow sports have also been strengthened recently. We must tell the story of Chinese athletes well, and we must also draw the wonderful performance of athletes from all over the world at the Beijing Winter Olympics, which is also our task. ”

As the first artist in China to hold a solo exhibition at the Olympic Museum, Fan Yang believes that on a platform like the Olympics, chinese artists should take on more responsibilities for telling Chinese stories well and embodying China's sports style to people around the world. (End)
