Zeng Fanzhi's "Mask Series 1996 No. 6" sold for $9,703,490. This is a record for Chinese contemporary art!
Zeng Fanzhi's paintings appeal to me because they express political and psychologicial issues. I like how the artist is able to create such expressive paintings. The people portrayed in his work seem very expressive and possibly insane. This can especially be seen in his portrait of Mao, which directly adresses Tiananmen Square.
