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.
