She emphasized that the Chinese zodiac culture, a unique tradition and creation of the Chinese nation, represents a significant contribution of the Chinese people to the world’s civilizations and should be vigorously promoted. The Global Zodiac Design Competition is a signature project jointly hosted by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism and the Central Academy of Fine Arts. Since its inception in 2014, it has been held continuously for 10 editions. Building on efforts dedicated to promoting Chinese zodiac culture over the years, we have accumulated abundant and high-quality achievements in zodiac cultural design, attracting and bringing together a vibrant community of artists. The project has also served as an important platform for promoting the integration of Chinese and world cultures, facilitating mutual learning, and enhancing cultural exchange among people. As a result, the competition has evolved into a culturally significant international event. We cordially invite artists and professionals from home and abroad to join our cause, to tell compelling Chinese stories, spread the authentic voice of China, so as to let the world understand China better, and help China to effectively present itself on the global stage.
