THE MAGAZINE UPCOMING AUCTIONS INTERNATIONAL Zeng Fanzhi ‘Mask Series’ 24 May Zeng Fanzhi played a starring role in Poly Auctions’s Hong Kong April sales, achieving the highest price in the Chinese Modern and Contemporary Art sale with his painting "Mao’s Song Poem of Snow, No. 2" which sold for HKD17,250,000. This month, his success is set to continue with the sale of a painting from his famous ‘Mask Series’. This artistic period, which began in the early 1990s, was influenced by Zeng’s move to Beijing. The loneliness he experienced and the social facades adopted by the people he encountered inspired the artist to paint these raw, disquieting images. Zeng uses the metaphor of the mask to express the difference between reality and appearance, exposing the social conformity he encountered as a disguise. In this painting (€1,000,000-1,200,000) to be auctioned by Lempertz on 24 May, the vacant gaze and gawping mouth of the mask are crude imitations of authentic emotions, while the suit and cigar are symbols of the Western consumerism that had begun to dominate Beijing society. Another of Zeng’s paintings from the ‘Mask Series’ currently holds the record for his most expensive work: it was sold for HKD75,367,500 by Christie’s in 2008 (source: Artnet), so this will be an important date in the calendar for Chinese contemporary art fans. Polly Brock Zeng Fanzhi, "Untitled". From the 'Mask' series. 2000, oil on canvas, 199 x 70 cm. Estimate: €1M – 1,2M. 60 GAZETTE DROUOT INTERNATIONAL I N° 25

The 1,809 woodcuts that fill the pages include some of the first realistic representations of major cities such as Vienna, Munich and Augsburg.
