20 12, 13 From February 26th to February 5th, 20 13, Xiao Hu's concept art exhibition was exhibited in the British Space of the Ring Railway Art Zone. Xiao Hu wrote in the preface: "Contemporary artists have got rid of the shackles of realism, but they are trapped by various modern and contemporary trends of thought and tempted by various interests. However, if you do something unconventional, you will inevitably think hard, be exhausted and tired of life and death. There is a saying that' if you don't do art, you should do it by art'. The so-called art can't bear too much political connotation. The portrait of Mao Zedong at Tiananmen Gate is vivid, but it is not a work of art ... However, we were born in the era of Mao Zedong, and the red brand may accompany us all our lives. Eliminating absurdity with absurdity and resisting nothingness with nothingness may surpass the spiritual distortion and confusion of life in this life. Therefore, picking up a brush is actually writing and remembering. As a result, there are such a number of "Chinese paintings" with Mao as the theme. Like and dislike, but approximate, like and dislike all by imagination. "
