i just read a very brief and short introduction to an artist. less than 100 words mentioned the artist's theme, style, understanding of life, etc. i was told that he wanted to portray urban people's disillusionment of urban life. this remark made me pause for a second and wonder what it meant exactly.
of course, such a brief and short introduction may overlook many important aspects of his thought, merits and achievement. but what gets mentioned in this introduction must be a result of careful choice. in other words, urban people's disillusionment are not an accident or misinterpretation or misrepresentation or misunderstanding of the writer (just suppose the writer is not the artist himself). it must be true of the artist's viewpoint.
