Lithograph printed in colours - Signed, numbered and dated on the front - Printed by IDEM, Paris. Published by Beijing Commune, Beijing. // Zhang Xiaogang’s The Big Family from the Bloodline series presents a family portrait rendered in grayscale, with a single member depicted in vibrant red. The image features four individuals, all with solemn, expressionless faces, positioned closely together. One of the central figures stands out with striking red skin, a hallmark of Zhang’s style symbolizing emotional or generational weight within the family structure. Fine red lines subtly trace connections between the family members, evoking the invisible bonds of heritage and bloodline that tie them together. Zhang’s use of light and shadow highlights the symmetry and placidity of the figures, capturing a sense of unity but also quiet alienation. Signed, numbered, and dated on the front, this lithograph printed by IDEM in Paris and published by Beijing Commune encapsulates Zhang’s reflections on identity, family, and the socio-political legacy of Chinese history.

What is new figuration?
Neo-Figurative Art is a collective term that refers to the revival of figurative art in America and Europe during the 1960s, following a period dominated by abstraction. Michel Ragon, a French art critic, argued that this resurgence of figuration occurred during a critical time of social and political upheaval in both regions.
