The Army Day Reception was held in the Chinese Embassy in Poland on 27th July, 2010 to celebrate the 83rd anniversary of founding of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. Curtain of the painting show, "Illustration of the Wolf Soul" rose at the same time. The Chinese Ambassador to Poland Sun Yuxi and the Defence, Naval and Air Attache of P.R.C in Poland were present.
There are 22 paintings exhibited. With his unique style, the artist expresses a harmonious interaction between man and the wolf. People can find the nature of wolves from the paintings and the human soul get distillated in return.

The artist keep pace with the times and attaches great importance to the idea of environmental protection. Therefore his painting are so close to the origin of lives and full filled with an air of natural and healthy goodness.
Most high-tech products we depend cause industrial pollution, rapid expansion of cities and exhaust of the vehicles. The consequence of these development fast shrink the forest and grassland, and pose a threat to the living environment of other species on earth. This is an aggression from the man to the wolf and a challenge from development to nature.
From the paintings produced in 2007, the year when we are very concerned about global warming and the hole in the ozone layer, people can strongly feel that the wolves are howling against the invasion of mankind to their homes.

“sigh”
Mr. Cao Yunfei introduced that his feeling and idea came from his eight-year live with wolves in Inner Mongolia. The wolves in Cao's paintings sometimes look docile and virtuous, but may appear feral and cunning under the force of circumstance.

Guests were deeply impressed by Cao's paintings. They all expressed their congratulations to Cao for the curtain-up of his painting show. Finally, some of them said that they hope there will be more exhibition held in Poland, which can directly introduce Chinese culture to Polish people and enhance their knowledge of Chinese culture.
