For the past week, we have been reporting on China's explosive growth and development as a world power.

Tonight, we look at how Chinese artists are recreating what they call the country's cultural aristocracy by producing original art. That is a shift from recent years, when China produced 75 percent of the world's art knockoffs.

The story is part of our ongoing arts and culture coverage, Canvas, and also part of our series "China: Power & Prosperity," produced with the support of the Pulitzer Center.
