- Abstract
Today, with a high degree of urbanisation, ‘demolition’ has become a hot topic of discussion, and the product of urban change and renewal is the ‘urban ruin’, which has been developed throughout painting to the present day. The product of urban change and renewal is the ‘urban ruin’, which has been a part of the development of painting up to the present day. The city is full of mystery and is a collection of all kinds of human ‘drama’. As multifaceted beings, urban ruins are a mixture of extinction and solitude, life and poetry. In this paper, we explore how different artists’ paintings on urban themes have recreated the beauty of ‘urban ruins’ and used art forms to bridge the gap between architecture, society and human beings in the urban matrix, which also awakens the artists’ spiritual and emotional attachment, as well as their reflection on the relationship between human beings and society. The rich pictorial expressions in urban ruins are worthy of deeper exploration.
