Catalogue of solo exhibition by Zhao Fang at Schoeni Art Gallery in 2006, featuring paintings inspired by Kung Fu movies from Hong Kong and Taiwan. The artist was first fascinated by the eye-boggling wrestling maneuvers and the unparalleled skills of the fighters in Kung Fu movies. However, he gradually realized that when two sides are intertwined in battle there exists a subtle relationship hidden between them. In the clash between bodies, there are multiple layers of metaphor containing the arcane truths of ancient Chinese society. With artist statement and biography.

本圖錄是趙放於2006年在少勵畫廊舉辦個展的圖錄,其作品的靈感來自港台的功夫電影。趙放深為功夫電影中武林高手的不凡身手而折服。與此同時,他也逐漸意識到,敵我過招之際往往處於一種極為微妙的關係。拳來腳往之時,其實隱含了多重的意境。明乎此,實有助於揭開中國古代社會的神秘面紗。本圖錄亦載有藝術家的創作自述及簡歷
