Lithograph on Rives BFK paper - Sheet: 43 1/4 x 31 1/2 in. (109.8 x 80 cm) // Yue Minjun’s Untitled (Smile-ism No. 9) (2006) is a lithograph that epitomizes his signature surrealism and exploration of human expression. In this work, two large, pale hands form a frame around a small, seated figure, who mirrors the smile and gestures often seen in Minjun’s other self-referential pieces. The hands dominate the foreground, while the figure within the “frame” appears isolated, accentuating a sense of introspection and irony. Known for his exaggerated, laughing self-portraits, Minjun’s work often critiques social and existential themes. The subtle color palette and the expression of the isolated figure evoke a contemplative atmosphere. Printed on Rives BFK paper, the sheet measures 109.8 x 80 cm and is part of a limited edition of 45.

What is activist art?
Activist Art is a form of art created to address social and political issues. It often involves public engagement and works closely with communities to raise awareness or inspire change. While it can include elements of performance art, it is not limited to this form. Examples include creating and distributing social protest posters or organizing community-based art projects that highlight specific causes.
