Fu Zenan is one of representative artists of 85’ New Wave Art Movement . As early as 1985, he has drawn wide attention and become famous in the field of art. The reason why he became the hot topic at that time is that his art concept of New Wildness attaches the phenomena of  the whole society at that time, and delivers some  kind of message of personality liberation and emancipation of mind. These are the spirits of  New Wave Movement and the value pursuit in the new society. New Wildness  is the origin of the logic of new age, which  owns pioneer spirit, therefore it has become one of the most representative art symbols.

However, after 90's, with the fall of idealism and the rise of commercial society, New Wave Art Movement thoroughly faded out. There appeared a transition in the Art Movement because artists tended to be clam and rational rather than mad and radical. Fu Zenan also had to face this change of society and suffered the pains due to this transition. However, unlike other artists, he didn’t abandon his original intention of art. He is always insisting his creation principle of non-rationality. Therefore he stepped on a road not taken which was rebellious and far away from the art tide of that age. Therefore, his works of  that period express the feelings of painful, gloomy, deep and tragical, while the tone of his works in 80s’ is wild, bold, and hot.

Apparently, at the beginning of the new century, his style changed slightly. The bold strokes and thick texture were gradually taken place by flat strokes. At the same time, some contemporary visual symbols representing rational construction, for example, modern buildings with angular appearance,mighty machines used in industrial manufacturing, and some imaginary objects constitute his image and produce a visual effect of the confusion of sense and sensibility. These changes indicate his spirit of  participating in social activities and concerning about current social issues. After a period of  exploration of rationality, he returned to his nature, and to the state of non-rationality intentionally or unintentionally. Therefore, his works regain the power of wildness.

In recent works, his spirit of wildness and the unrestrained character have been revealed obviously .The texture and disorder of his paintings are even highlighted. It is his unique art language. In terms of theme, it can be divided into two categories: one is  the portrait of people; the other is chaotic abstract painting. They are connected to each other. As for the later,  the figure of ghost haunts in the chaotic image; as for the former,  portraits of  people are tangled and chaotic. Obviously, these images reflect  this world in a mess. Although, in current society, science and rationality are highly praised. However, when confronting non-rationality, they are fragile. To reveal the non-rational world in a non-rational way is more powerful and vivid than in a realistic way. Due to these reasons, Fu Zenan sets up the flag of New Wildness and devotes himself into it.
