Image as an Image Meeting Clement Greenberg and Alfred Rosenberg perhaps should be considered the end of form and content, or even the end of painting itself, akin to the collapse of the Berlin Wall of Communist devils, which marked the end of ideological confrontation. Now, we are left with the emergence of the subject of the decadence of contemporary images, raised by visual intellectuals. However, I was compelled to defend "how" against "what" and to create art for the sake of art, not for the masses and subjects. By erasing the image of the subject, we will bridge to the image itself, to the moment of nudity and shamelessness before thought, a moment that only the audience will experience, full of color and scent.
