An art exhibition in Xi'an highlights the role cats play in people's lives, Chen Nan reports.
"Behind many great artists is a great… cat," wrote artist and culture journalist Alison Nastasi in her book, Artists and Their Cats. "Many artists buck notions of a stereotypical temperament, but researchers have long speculated that creative individuals share common attributes-which mirror those of cats."
Many great artists like Pablo Picasso and Andy Warhol have shared one very special love: the companionship of cats. And their furry friends also have inspired artists for centuries.
