Zhang Dali's 'AK-47' (2009) is a screenprint in colors on wove paper that confronts themes of identity, propaganda, and militarism. The artwork features a haunting portrait composed of repetitive text spelling 'AK-47,' symbolizing the infamous assault rifle associated with global conflict. The words densely overlap, creating a grayscale tonal effect that gradually reveals a face, possibly that of a soldier or revolutionary figure, blending individuality and anonymity. The meticulous layering of the text underscores the pervasive influence of violence in modern society while questioning the human cost of political and ideological systems. Measuring 48 x 40 inches for the image and 54 1/2 x 46 3/4 inches with margins, this work is part of an edition of 60, signed and dated by the artist. It was published by Pace Editions, Inc. and is framed for preservation and display.

What is Political Pop?
Political Pop was an art movement that emerged in China during the 1980s, blending the Pop Art style of Western countries with the socialist realism of China. This movement arose during a time of rapid social and political change in China, as artists sought to create works that questioned and critiqued these cultural shifts. Political Pop often juxtaposed iconic images from Chinese propaganda with Western consumer culture, highlighting the tensions between tradition and modernization.
