Bronze, signed on the belt at the back side. // Salute (Soldier) by Shen Jingdong is a bronze sculpture that portrays a soldier in a rigid salute, blending elements of realism and stylization. The figure is simplified, with smooth, rounded features that give it a childlike, almost cartoonish quality, contrasting with the solemn military attire. Dressed in a traditional uniform, the soldier’s expressionless face and solid stance convey a sense of duty and obedience, while the polished bronze surface adds a timeless, reflective quality. This sculpture is emblematic of Shen Jingdong's approach, often blending playful forms with subtle social commentary on authority, identity, and cultural symbolism.

What is Chinese contemporary art?
Chinese Contemporary Art is marked by a wide range of styles and experimental approaches. In the 1980s, avant-garde exhibitions were often shut down by government officials. The 1990s saw the rise of political pop and cynical realism, while China's One-Child Policy influenced artists to explore the individual as a subject matter.
