'
Traditional and contemporary conflicts, Liu Zijian be understood as 'Time to set the situation for the Ink Artist', hoping a 'Dali' type of character resolve the conflict, 'When future generations of Chinese contemporary art history writing, when, if not utilitarian Marxism and opportunism judge an artist, I think this piece would like to achieve in the traditional culture of modern artists who convert their achievements and significance is much higher.
