Coming of age during the Cultural Revolution, Liu Dahong chose to paint that era with a series of meaningful jokes. Adopting a folk and primitive style, and drawing themes from the past and the present, from China and the West and from religion and the secular world, Liu Dahong offered in his paintings a unique examination and interpretation of human and cultural history. These paintings are presented in this catalogue, published on the occasion of the artist’s solo exhibition at the China Club in Hong Kong in 1992. Artist's biography is included.

成長於文革時期的劉大鴻以別具深意的戲謔方式，來描寫各種文革現象。他糅合了民俗和原始的元素，所涉及的題材橫貫古今中外，宗教世俗無所不及，並以其獨特的方式來審視和詮釋人文歷史。本畫冊收錄的便是此類作品，畫家於1992年在香港中國會舉辦個展時同時推出。本圖錄亦載有藝術家的簡歷。
