Chinese New Year paintings are pinned up
on doors, room walls and windows on the Chinese New Year to invite heavenly
blessings and ward off disasters and evil spirits. It dates back to about two
thousand years ago. Thanks to the invention of block printing, folk painting
became popular in the Song Dynasty (960-1279) and reached its zenith of
sophistication in the Qing (1644-1911). Woodcuts have become increasingly
diverse in style, variety, theme and artistic form since the early 1980s.
