Shi Xinning’s paintings has once caused severely debating， he used some leaders’ image making fantasy juxtaposition， but which does not affect the market of Shi Xinning’s works. Shi Xinning’s oil paintings are often regarded as a destructive representation of past politics language. His painting has an image effect of black-white news photo， in which all elements of different space and times juxtaposed constructing a phantom realistic image. This Tiananmen No.1 looks like a piece of black-white photo picture， recording one corner of the Tiananmen Square. It is not the same scene as what we see everyday， here the square looks like a waste land， there are not any people existing on the square. The political allegory paintings of Shi Xinning challenged us the former recognition to the political icons， he makes a kind of authentic phantom with the artificial images.
