Published to accompany 'Island of Four Seasons,' Yin Zhaoyang's solo exhibition at Tang Contemporary Art, Hong Kong and Bangkok in 2010 and 2011 respectively. 'In this "Island of Four Seasons" series, Yin expresses his understanding towards humanity, history, or even art history and all that it encompasses; Yin opens up a new territory in his painting by going beyond his former idealistic language and returning to his interest in humanity. Yin Zhaoyang, in his post-heroic era, has illustrated the richness, and explosion of desire in human figure of nudity. These characters are sealed in this lunatic Island, reflecting the paradox of greediness and the lost of their spiritual status in the subconscious in modern society.' (Excerpt from Tang Contemporary Art HK) Includes essay by Zhu Zhu, artist interview and a brief biography of the artist.
