Shenzhen Illustration Association (SIA) has established partnership with the Association of Illustrators (AOI) since 2020 for a better communication of the global illustration community. This exhibition is the first official presentation of the World Illustration Awards 2020 (WIA) in China and the starting point of its tour in the country. The exhibition is located in ALILI ART in Nantou Ancient Town in Nanshan, Shenzhen.

The World Illustration Awards is co-organised by AOI (The Association of Illustrators) in UK And DI (Directory of Illustration) in the US. The competition covers 10 categories including commercial publishing, book covers, children's publishing, editorial etc. 

ALILI ART is presenting 42 winner illustrations and over 200 finalists to showcase the most creative and inspiring ideas in the illustration community. We hope that this exhibition will encourage the communications among professions as well as an enjoyable experience for visitors.
