22-color screenprint - Published by Pace Editions, Inc. // Year of the Ox by Ai Weiwei is a 22-color screen print created in 2021, celebrating the Chinese zodiac sign of the Ox. The artwork features a repetitive grid of vibrant ox heads rendered in various color schemes across each panel, evoking pop art influences. Each ox image appears with slight variations and occasional dripping paint, adding a sense of movement and decay to the traditionally powerful symbol. Ai blends traditional cultural motifs with a modern, dynamic aesthetic, inviting contemplation on the significance of resilience, strength, and endurance—traits associated with the Ox—in contemporary society. This piece encapsulates Ai’s approach to bridging cultural heritage with current sociopolitical themes.

What is minimalism?
Artwork by Agnes Martin

What is minimalism?

Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
