Zhang Xiaogang
Zhang Xiaogang (born 1958) is a contemporary Chinese symbolist/surrealist painter, well known for his "Bloodline" series of paintings, which are haunting, often monochromatic, slightly stylized portraits of Chinese people, usually with large, dark-pupiled eyes, posed in a stiff manner deliberately reminiscent of family portraits from the 1950s and 60s. Critics have praised these paintings as "portraits of the modern Chinese soul".
