Celebrating New Year in Costumes, 1955.

“Despite the threat of a Communist invasion of the islands North of Formosa, the Nationalist Chinese held their usual rip roaring celebration of Chinese New Year. During a parade through the streets of Taipei, Nationalist wore rubber masks and carried placards in Chinese characters saying "Traitor Mao Tse-Tung" and "King of The Killers, Malenkov." The parade also celebrated Freedom Day, the day the anti-Communist Chinese were released from South Korean prison camps, and allowed to join the Nationalists on Formosa.“

Shi Xinning, Duchamp Retrospective Exhibition in China, 2000-2001.

石心寧,《杜尚回顧展在中國》。

This painting is a surreal juxtaposition of Marcel Duchamp’s urinal readymade Fountain and Mao. Shi Xinning’s work is based on an original photograph featuring the Chairman’s visit to an industrial product fair. His placement of the leader within an unrealistic context is a play on history writing and presents his exploration of an alternate China. Shi’s artistic practice often focuses on themes pertaining to the Cultural Revolution. He began to incorporate Mao into western historical events in his paintings, in a socialist realism manner, during the early 2000s.
