// This untitled painting by Zhao Bo is an oil on canvas measuring 50 x 50 cm. The artwork depicts a surreal, satirical portrait of a woman with an exaggerated, almost cartoonish expression. Behind her, iconic symbols of globalization, such as a Coca-Cola sign and a panda (a symbol associated with China), merge with urban elements like high-rise buildings and umbrellas. The composition, with its bright colors and playful yet critical approach, reflects Zhao Bo’s exploration of contemporary Chinese society and its intersection with Western consumer culture. The painting’s blend of realism and caricature emphasizes the tension between traditional and modern influences, creating a thought-provoking visual narrative.
