Abstract
In the artist\u27s statement, Zhao Shaoruo explained that the My Life is Red, Yellow, And Blue Respectively photographic series documented the artist\u27s personal life (spiritually and materially). It is composed of three independent series: red, yellow, and blue. There are ten photos in each series. In the Red Series , there are five photos of his left-hand holding certificate, silk flag and rewards; there are other five photos of his right-hand holding deposit book, cashier\u27s check and a picture of his dog. In the artist\u27s words, his left hand holds honor and right hand holds wealth. Zhao was one of students at Tiananmen square democracy movement in 1989 while attending the Central Academy of Fine Art. He was arrested shortly after the incident and released the following year and arrested again for 50 days in 1994. This series may express his self-reflection on his economic and academic life under the rule of the Communist party. (Zhuocheng Jiang \u2726)https://digital.kenyon.edu/zhou/1618/thumbnail.jp
