Features: By analyzing the term "New Figuration" and contrasting it with corresponding international concepts such as "New Figurative Art" or "New Realism," the author argues that figurative art remains a direct reflection of reality. It maintains an unbreakable connection with the evolution of realism in China during different periods. The author traces the process since Luo Zhongli's Father, including exhibitions such as "Youth Artists in Progress," "New Figurative Art Exhibition," "Photorealism Exhibition," "New Generation Art Exhibition," and "Return to Vision—," describing the development of "New Figurative Art" in China.
