New Fable II
by EDGE Gallery
Location: EDGE Gallery
Artist(s): YAN Ren Kui
Date: 30 Jul - 30 Oct 2010

<Fable> in the field of literature is a kind of short stories which contains ironic, advisory or moral lessons. It is the ancient awareness of nature, society recognition, and the recognition of reflection of things. Ancient Chinese Fables, having a long history and  brilliant score, is having an extremely important position in the parable of literary treasure of the world. In ancient Chinese Fables, a majority of the subjects were taken in the social, political, historical and military aspects. It also has a strong political flavor, rich historical and cultural connotation.

Traditional fables are in single language, and today, in my work series <New Fable II> a continuation of <New Fable>, it is a group of highly contemporary works. My work has no direct expression of a particular story, but in some funny, absurd, ridiculous, and abnormal behavior action, a specific response to the inner fear of the human minds and the heart of greed. The surface of the depths are so difficult to imagine that every day of what he saw and heard is true or otherwise has blur the people's hearts. The only way to create the truest and most valuable works of art is to see the reality behind the story.
