Dafen Village in south China's Guangdong Province was once known as the global art factory. In its heyday, more than 60 percent of the world's oil paintings came from there. Three decades on, the workshops that once churned out mock masterpieces are striving to re-invent themselves into creative hubs. Where do the painters fit in the age of digital art?

In this episode of Biz Focus, CGTN reporter Huang Fei talks to painters, art dealers and curators to find out how a small village strives to gain the respect of the international art world.
