// Untitled II by Zhao Bo is an oil painting on canvas, depicting a playful, close-up portrait of a person pressing a watermelon to their face, with wide eyes and a mischievous expression. The bright, saturated colors—vivid greens of the watermelon, bold pinks in the figure’s skin, and a contrasting yellow background—give the composition a pop-art feel, adding humor and liveliness to the scene. The exaggerated features and intense colors evoke a sense of childlike curiosity and amusement. Zhao Bo’s style combines elements of realism with cartoon-like qualities, capturing a lighthearted moment that engages viewers through whimsy and bold visual appeal.

What is Chinese contemporary art?
Chinese Contemporary Art is marked by a wide range of styles and experimental approaches. In the 1980s, avant-garde exhibitions were often shut down by government officials. The 1990s saw the rise of political pop and cynical realism, while China's One-Child Policy influenced artists to explore the individual as a subject matter.
