Ronaldinho: In 2007, Leng Jun spent more than a year painting a portrait "Ronaldinho" that shocked the art history of China. This work won the Academy Award in the 4th Exhibition of Excellent Works of the National Academy of Painting sponsored by the Ministry of Culture. This work has truly reached the master level of "exquisite but not greasy, realistic but not real".
Baby: At first glance, it seems to be a black and white photo. These items are rags, old medals, pencil tips, small keys, pieces of paper torn from Snoopy's comic books, and nails and nuts that often appear in his works.
Leng Jun first copied the article into a flat first draft with a copier, and finally deepened and reformed it with acrylic pigments, so that every detail was extremely realistic, while retaining a certain degree of mechanical reproduction. This pile of cultural relics, which have lost their practical value, is put into a cross-like composition, facing the viewer with a cold and unfathomable attitude.
