M: Do you know there is a new art exhibition in the city?

W: No, I don’t. Is it being held at the City Exhibition Center?

M: I thought it was there at first, or at one of the popular art galleries. But no, and you would never guess where it is.

W: Come on, tell me.

M: It’s taking place inside the Metropolitan Shopping Center.

W: Seriously? That’s so unusual.

M: Yeah. I thought it was ridiculous, but now I find it kind of cool.

W: What are they showing at the exhibition? Paintings?

M: There’s a painting section, and most paintings are the works of contemporary artists. Only a few are painted by traditional painters.

W: What’s the major difference between the two?

M: Well, contemporary artists’ works are more abstract compared with the classical style of traditional paintings.

W: I see. So what other sections are there?

M: There’s a photography section, a sculpture section and a video section.

W: What’s being shown in the video section?

M: Short movies. It’s actually the second most popular section of all four after the photography section.

W: Interesting. Which section is the least popular?

M: The sculpture one.
