(Clearwisdom.net) After touring over 30 large cities in America, Canada, Indonesia and some other countries, the "Truthfulness Compassion Forbearance" International Art Show began in Chaozhou Township, Pingdong County, in south Taiwan on June 26, 2005. This was a four-day art exhibition. The local Falun Gong practitioners performed the "Drum of Fa" at the opening ceremony. The director of Chaozhou Township and the director of Kending National Park cut the ribbon and gave speeches.

A retired art teacher, Ms. Zhu Meiniang, gave tours at the exhibition. The exhibit is made up of Falun Dafa practitioners' art works. Besides illustrating the beauty of Falun Dafa, some of the paintings expose the persecution and tortures endured by Chinese Falun Dafa practitioners, and these works touched the hearts of the visitors the most. The visitors were shocked at the cruelty of the persecution. One senior gentleman repeated the words again and again, "How can one be so cruel?"

Two days earlier, a broadcasting truck drove in the streets to announce the exhibition in Mandarin, Taiwanese, Cantonese and to pass out flyers. On the evening of June 27, Falun Gong practitioners formed four groups to distribute flyers in the crowd near a commerce show.

Outside the exhibition hall, a display board told the story of how Ms. Gao Rongrong was tortured to death. The visitors saw it and couldn't believe such things could even happen in the 21st century. Many expressed their sympathy and others signed their names to support the petition to end the persecution. In the evening, a candlelight vigil was held to commemorate Ms. Gao. Practitioners called on all the people to be aware of the persecution that has lasted over five years, appeal to the Chinese Communist Party to end the persecution immediately and bring to justice the criminals responsible for Ms. Gao's death.
Many people came to see the art show. People asked questions such as "Are these paintings inspired by things that have actually happened?" "Do these tortures really exist?" and one child asked, "Why [is the guard] beating him?" The guide patiently answered their questions and clarified the truth in the process.
