The Billy Graham Center Museum at Wheaton College will display a new exhibit titled “Look Toward the Heavens: The Contemporary Biblical Art of He Qi” from now through June 9, showcasing works by the Chinese artist.

Exhibit organizers said the artist uses the Chinese technique of color-on-paper painting to bring Biblical scenes to life in new and surprising ways. A professor at Nanjing Union Theological Seminary, He Qi won the 20th Century Award for Achievement in the field of Religious Art Theory and Christian Art Creation from the International Biographical Centre in Cambridge, England.

A reception for the artist will take place from 5:15 to 7:15 p.m. Thursday, April 16. He Qi also offers a lecture titled “An Artist Searches for Peace and Finds Christ in the Arts” at 4:15 p.m. Friday, April 17. Both events are free to the public.

Museum hours are 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday; and 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday. Suggested donation is $4 for adults. The Billy Graham Center Museum is at 500 College Ave., Wheaton. For more information, call (630) 752-5909 or visit www.bgcmuseum.org.
