Features: Modern art often regards the non-utilitarian nature of aesthetics as the essential characteristic of art. Because utilitarianism often leads to the subordination and compromise of individuality, thereby hindering the expression and assertion of artistic individuality. From this perspective, the rebels are the true artists. This is not only about their art but also about their lives—this is the key to interpreting the rebels. The basic idea of this book is precisely to reveal the subtle, elusive yet sensitive and real interaction between art and society through the exploration of artistic rebels. This relationship is based on the context of traditional culture, and this narrative undoubtedly makes the theme seem heavy and tragic. However, whether heavy or tragic, the narration of history is ultimately aimed at reminding us to think about the reality.
