Art Fair

It is really an interesting and amazing event! I have not taken part in such a big art fair in China before!

It seems that the whole area of Ann Arbor is under the atmosphere of this activity. The central part of this town is filled up with art shows held by artists from all over America. There are paintings, pottery, sculptures and all the other styles of art you can imagine. It also includes a modern art style-- action art. In front of the Diag, a man dressed in western-style clothe with a cane in his hand makes his face grey just like a puppet. He has a basket in front of himself used for begging. He keeps the same posture all the time. Once people put some coins into his basket, he would do some interesting action and change his posture. Many people are amazed by this amusing person and stand around him. When a boy comes up to give money to him, he shakes hand with the boy and then grasps the boy's hand without relaxing. The boy has no idea without putting more money to the basket, but the man has not loose the boy's hand. Everyone laughs.

Despite the traditional art style, there are also some common commodity in the art fair like clothe, bag and jewelry. I buy a necklace for my mother. It is made of silver with a light red pearl in it. I like the talking with the salesman. They are not eager to sell their commodity, on the contrary, they just like a friend of you to discuss some topic you both are interested in. I enjoy the harmony relationship between people.
