Uh-Oh ! Pandaman | Published on the Occasion of the Exhibition, Performances and Offsite Projects Uh-Oh! Pandaman at Aspex Gallery, Ikon Gallery, and Manchester Art Galleries 3 July - 28 August 2004. Bandi, Zhao (Book #ID 98282) Published by Aspex Gallery, Ikon Gallery, Manchester Art Gallery, 3 July - 28 August 2004. 2004. First edition in publisher's original colour illustrated stiff card wrap covers [soft back]. 8vo. 8½'' x 5½''. Zhao Bandi, also known as 'the panda man', is a renowned contemporary Chinese visual artist, widely known for his famous witty artworks, including paintings, sculptures, installations and costumes featuring panda bears. Bandi's acclaimed series of comic-like photographs, titled Zhao Bandi and the Panda, featuring himself in conversation with stuffed panda bear through speech bubbles, playfully deals with troubling issues of modern day China, such as drug abuse, air pollution, violence, and unemployment. Using pandas, beloved Chinese national symbol, as his own spokesperson, indirectly critical of the establishment and society, Bandi wonderfully plays with the boundaries separating art, advertising, and political activism. Since the early 1990s, Bandi has been exhibiting his works in galleries across Asia, Europe and America, but he definitely broke to international fame during his 1999 exhibition at the Venice Biennale. Contains 80 printed pages of text and colour photographs throughout. In Fine condition, no dust wrapper as issued. Member of the P.B.F.A.
