Abandoning the collective goals of the communist era, they sought to promote themselves and their art in the competitive global marketplace. Critiquing this commodification, Hong Hao used digital processing to insert his own elegantly dressed image, along with text, into commercial photographs of luxurious environments, advertising himself as suitable for the sophisticated Western art world.",
