Exposition:

Ren Sihong’s rich life experiences, and the fact that he narrowly escaped death, have helped him develop a sensitive judgment. After undergoing many changes and finding all doors closed to him, Ren found consolation and salvation in contemporary art. His experience is obviously a myth and legend in the history of contemporary art!The elements of humor, comedy, absurdity, and fun, found in his work, played only a small role in his comeback and subsequent good fortune. The key to his success was that he adopted a pose of stardom and this, in turn, fascinated and attracted those who chase after money and myth. Ren is unquestionably an unusual character in the annals of contemporary art;Someone who by pure chance seems to have lucked out.
