Description
Zhao Bandi is a Chinese artist born in 1966. He is often nicknamed "the panda man" because many of his works (paintings, sculptures, installations, but also costumes) represent or allude to the figure of the panda. Through this animal, a true national symbol in China, Zhao Bandi produces works at the frontiers of art, advertising and political propaganda that address themes such as the use of drugs, air pollution, violence. or unemployment. But the plush panda with which he dialogues in his photographs (through a system of text bubbles) also symbolizes the only child, to whom he transmits culture and society in a humorous and ironic way.

Presentation

Zhao Bandi is a contemporary Chinese artist, also known as Pandaman. He is a graduate of the Beijing Central Academy of Fine Arts (oil painting department).

He produces photographs, photomontages, paintings, sculptures and costumes. He uses paradigms from advertising and Chinese propaganda, which he reinterprets in his works. His intention is to inform the public about important political issues through his works.

The panda is a recurring character in his works. Zhao Bandi has organized a fashion show at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris called "China: a nation of pandas". Parodying the fashion parades, the Chinese artist presented thirty characters, stereotypes of today's China - the judge, the cyber sex worker, the beggar, the stakeholder ... all dressed in white and black, the colors of the panda. For Zhao Bandi, the panda is the symbol of the one-child policy in China.
