"The "AAmA Stars" exhibition, as well as the entire complex, tireless cultural activity of Mr. Luo Qi in the artistic and curatorial field, demonstrates that there are no borders between true artists. The artists joined this movement sincerely and without ideological limits, creating a climate that should be the basis of human relations on the entire planet. It is a utopia, but we all hope that art is the most positive manifestation that should contribute to world peace." - Ovidui Petca
 
The "AAmA Stars" exhibition highlights paintings and collages on canvas by Janusz J. Cywicki (Poland), Milan Jakšiæ (Serbia), Christian Paraschiv (France), Rania Schoretsaniti (Greece), Virgilijus Trakimavièius (Lithuania) and Ioan Sbârciu, Maxim Dumitrao, Gyöngyi Károly-Zöld, Ciprian Radovan, Adrian Sandu and Mircea Popiþiu from Romania. The drawings of the artists Sasja Lucas from the USA and Valeri Mishin from Russia are remarkable, to which are added the quality graphics, in different techniques, of the artists: Peter Altneder (Germany), Alexandra Haeseker and Derek Michael Besant (Canada), Giancarlo Pozzi and Sandro Bracchitta (Italy), Zdenek Bugáò (Slovakia), Masahiro Kasai (Japan), Kecskés Péter (Hungary), Eddie Lui and Winnie Mak (Hong Kong), Ela Pamula (Poland), Ovidiu Petca (Romania), Fernando Santiago (Puerto Rico), Brita Weglin (Sweden) and Leon Zakraisek (Slovenia/Croatia).
