Read MoreIn his Great Criticism Series, Wang creates links between the propaganda aesthetics of the Cultural Revolution and the striking imagery of American Pop art. While Wang typically juxtaposes idealized revolutionary figures against the blunt commercialism of foreign logos, here instead, the artist has iconized his own name.
