Exposition：

Lu Hsienming had done similar work, though with a greater focus on obverall composition rather than the characters within. Depicting the streets of Taipei in black and blue hues, a scene may compositionally center on a projecting highway overpass in a manner that seems to“praise”this monument as an achievement of national development. And yet“praise”can hardly describe this imposing architectural beast, towering cold and dominant above the city. The image creats contradicting feelings, recurrent in Lu’s work.
