Fudong was selected for Documenta XI in 2002 and the Venice biennial in 2003 and 2007. Fudong finds his inspiration in classical film imagery but even more so in traditional Chinese aesthetics and Taoist traditions. The artist attempts to reconsider the role of the individual in a society that doesn\u0026rsquo;t seem to care about this person. His work is a metaphor for the feelings of isolation and abandonment, which the artist perceives in contemporary society. Nature is a recurrent theme in Fudong\u0026rsquo;s work; the theme of the garden is also an important motive in Chinese philosophy.
