与“北京CBD”这位高调的邻居相比，与它仅十多分钟路程之隔的“竞园”却是一处温暖、安静的角落。虽然这里的咖啡馆常年看不到人声鼎沸的热闹场面，甚至平日里也看不见什么客人，但是门前小黑板上的“今日推荐”还是一如既往的工整。

Seal carving is an art that combines Chinese calligraphy and carving skills. It was born through the function of utility, and gradually evolved into an independent art form from the Yuan to Qing Dynasty (AD 1271-1911), inheriting the essence of royal seals from the Qing and Han Dynasty (BC 221-220 AD). Seal carving has become a distinctively Chinese art that can be appreciated from aspects of both calligraphy and sculpturing. Therefore, if someone asked what the best representation of Chinese art and culture was, despite the prevalent answer most likely being Chinese calligraphy, art historians would tell you the real answer: the Chinese seal!

儿童与艺术之间存在着某种天然的联系，上帝赐予他们最纯粹的眼睛去观看世界的色彩与线条。儿童绘画中所呈现的稚拙的表达方式，以及天然的色彩、构图感觉，彰显着人类最原始的情感与视觉感受。也正是因为孩童身上的原始性，使他们的绘画作品、甚至是毫无意义的涂抹，都述说着他们真实的精神世界——他们的情感、渴望，也包括简单的思想。

绘画是沉默的，却能超越语言和文字。她通过形象、色彩和隐喻向我们倾诉，带我们进入一个人内心的最深处。

Happiness does exist, and it should be one of our lifelong pursuits.  However, achieving happiness is still a tough riddle to solve. What is the source of people’s happiness? Is it in our genetics, or can we find it in the world around us? Is it our soul or is it created through our actions? On May 23, 2009, Dandeli Art Space will welcome Ms. Ni Zijun, President of Asian Institute of Positive Psychology, to deliver a presentation on how to search for happiness.
