Since 1996, Han has already been to Tibet for nine times in order to collect materials for his paintings. He also held Tibet-themed exhibitions of oil paintings and photography, introducing picturesque scenery of Tibet, Tibetan history and customs to foreigners.

Tshi Dawa, Chief of Literature and Arts Association of Tibet Autonomous Region, said that this exhibition provides a good platform for art exchanges and promotes the communication between Tibetan culture and cultures of China's other provinces.
