Moments of truth, according to Tsui Kuang-Yu



Reality is day-to-day absurdities meted out, only we are too used to them.

Satires make better sense of real life, Shakespeare knows that.

In modern art, the Dadaists spearhead a new tradition; and until now, good humour, still stings the hardest.


A Hudson River dinner like it never is… 


An Arc de Triomphe selfie like it never is…


The Statue of Liberty, or perhaps Keith Richards like 
they never are…


An Eiffel Tower couple…

“我說真就真” , 崔廣宇

現實乃日復日的荒誕, 只是我們已見怪不怪.

譏諷始能反映生活, 沙翁最曉得.

在現代藝術裡, 達達主義者另闢新蹊. 迄今, 幽默這刺針還是最具殺傷力.


克遜河畔的晚餐似真還是. . .

凱旋門前的自拍似真還是. . .

自由神像, 噢或者Keith Richards似真還是. . .

艾菲爾鐵塔的戀人. . .
