I. A Special Flower
Life is full of dreams…
People with Disabilities equally love life and art.
Special Art is a new phrase used to describe the art performed by disabled people, which made its debut in the late 20th century. Te 1st International Special Art Festival was held in Washington, USA on June 5th, 1989. Henceforth, the garden of human art has added a new blossom----SPECIAL ART.
China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe was founded in 1987. With the support and cares of the whole society, the Performing Troupe bears the dreams of people with disabilities and creates a SPECIAL ART which delights audiences, purifying the soul with Truth, Honesty and Virtue. It strengthens people's will, and fosters friendship with sincerity. Having studied for 20 years, the Performing Troupe has begun to bring forth new ideas independently, produced classics of special art, and travelled to more than 50 countries in Asia, Europe, America, Africa and Oceania. It fies its own unique banner in a colourful world and they are referred to as a "Messenger of Beauty and Humanity" by the international community and as "Torch Bearer for SPECIAL ART" "Image Ambassador for People with Disabilities in the World" by the Disabled People's World Assembly.
My Dream is an extraordinary performing art presented by the China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe:
Artists with hearing impairments speak
their minds with graceful and colourful dances;
Artists with visual impairments depict
their imaginary world with beautiful melodies
and charmingly awkward dance steps;
Artists with physical disabilities give expression
to their pursuit of life with elegant postures
and spirited melodies.
