Biography
Wang Guangyi studied at the Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts (Hangzhou), now the National Academy of Fine Arts, graduating in 1984.

Founder and driving force behind the Political Pop Art movement that emerged in China in the late 1980s, Wang Guangyi is best known for his paintings in the Great Criticism series, initiated in the 1990s, in which he hijacks Maoist propaganda by juxtaposing, Armani, BMW, Carlsberg, Chanel, Coca-Cola, Dell, Dior, Disney, Ferrari, Gillette, Izod (en), Mexx, PepsiCo, Porsche, Rolex and Time Warner.

Artinfo writes that one of these paintings "responds to the recent influx of advertising by juxtaposing the Coca-Cola logo with the image of a Chinese soldier, appropriating the visual iconography of both the Chinese Cultural Revolution and American Pop Art "1.

Alongside Yue Minjun, Zeng Fanzhi and Fang Lijun, Wang Guangyi is one of China's most sought-after new artists.
