The careless graffiti of a “bird” in a vivid form is actually a form filled with a sense of constancy. at seems to be a very simple and fast process. In reality, the painting is involved in a very slow and complicated process. The exhibition with a thence of “painting a bird” consists of a satire on the art of painting. Artists have the same viewpoint as Duchamp’s: One’s life itself, in one sense, is a form of art. Therefore, no one is more important than another. 　　Out of the inception of the 85’new trend, Ye Yongqing was infused with romance and a vivid imagination in space and in mind. Then, his works were characteristic of thin material spread over a surface. After 1989, he began to introduce his own personal, concrete experience and perspective in the paintings. In the 1900s, he combined the history with the reality in his works by the use of canvas, paper, silk, brushes and ink. From 1994 on, he continues to paint posters and write a diary. Ye Yongqing has remained an attitude of a traditional artist and been keen on graffiti. 　　From 2000 on, Ye Yongqing fried to cut down production and began to draw from graffiti their sections and signs. At first, he put them, with a pen, on a piece of paper in a free way, then showed it on a screen by an overhead projector for the framework and finally enhanced the lines and shapes. Anyway, artists should use as little strategy as possible. Any comprehension and enunciation of these new works should not be considered a burden on art. They can be applied in any space without question. The painting of a “bird” is only a mark used by an artist to link the past with the present and the future.
