The painting practices of Wang Yin can be categorized into three progressive stages. Rethinking in the background of 80’s overall cultural radicalism and from the standpoint of his personal experiences of fine arts education，Wang Yin in the early 90s grasped art historical resources of the left-wing Realism from the May Fourth Period，started exploring issues of Chinese modernity in fine arts，and further determined the diachronic orientation of conceptions of basic issues. Around 2000，Wang Yin experienced a short period of ‘Dada’，in which he diverted，parodied，collaged，pastiched and fabricated various paintings and imagery resources，painting styles or approaches，and in turn established an painting pleasure value that was synchronic intertextuality based. In 2003，Wang Yin again directed his attention to the investigation of Chinese fine arts’ modern discourse context，including how exogenous discourses，such as western Realism，Modernism and Sovietism impacted contexts，and how endogenous discourses such as localization and nationalization constructed contexts. Wang Yin completely fell into the archaeological excavation of discourses that lie in this two interlaced branches of veins.
