Featuring more than 100 works by 66 cutting-edge artists, RED HOT surveys the dynamic contemporary art scene of East Asia. Beijing-based painter Feng Zhengjie's Chinese Portrait L Series No. 1 is a pop-art confection that skewers China's nouveau riche with its walleyed femme fatale staring out from the canvas. Karma, Korean sculptor Do-Ho Suh's monumental fiberglass installation, depicts a giant pair of authoritarian legs crushing the tiny masses running beneath its feet. Memories (Me), Sheng Qi's powerful photograph of his mutilated hand — the artist ritualistically chopped off his finger in a performance after the Tiananmen Square massacre — holding a small picture of himself as a child, presents innocence juxtaposed with loss while suggesting redemption through sacrifice and remembrance.
