Li Tianbing deviates from the strict canon of Socialist Realism by capturing an alternative narrative and representing the state of political conflict in China’s society. ‘Urban Scene’ becomes a signifier of the ideological tensions which clash in the main spaces of the world’s urban centres. Li Tianbing’s work is a spectacle, not only for those involved, but for the viewer who becomes a witness to these social pressures.
