About the exhibition
On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the town partnership between Berlin and Beijing, the BFF (Berufsverband Freie Fotografen und Filmgestalter e.V.) and the Chinese Photographers' Association presented 80 photographs by eight photographers on the topic of "Stories from China" as part of the 7th German-Chinese Cultural Festival Berlin, which showed individual perspectives on living in China.
Among others, works by BFF Chairman Klaus Mellenthin, photographer Thomas Billhardt and Deputy Chairman of the Chinese Photographers' Association LIU Jun were shown. The motifs ranged from the gaze of the "buffalo child" to a monk in the mountains and modern architectural landmarks.

Frames in action
Some of the impressive photographs with the Far Eastern motifs were presented in HALBE frames. The simple elegance of the frames gives the photographs the finishing touch and supports their effect, so that the viewer gets an undisturbed view of the picture.
