About the Item
Cedar (small), 2022
Screenprint on Somerset Velvet Antique 280gsm
hand-signed and numbered
47.5 x 38 cm
Edition of 150
To commemorate Ai Weiwei’s gift of a tree sculpture, Cedar, 2022, to Downing College, Cambridge, UK, the artist created this exclusive limited edition screenprint to support The Heong Gallery. The print is based on the artist’s freehand Chinese ink drawing of his tree sculpture.
Ai Weiwei is a prominent Chinese contemporary artist and activist whose work transcends traditional artistic boundaries to address pressing social and political issues. Born in 1957, Ai's diverse body of work includes sculpture, installation, photography, film, and architecture, often challenging authority and advocating for human rights and freedom of expression. He gained international attention for his role in designing the iconic "Bird's Nest" stadium for the 2008 Beijing Olympics but later became a vocal critic of the Chinese government's stance on issues such as censorship, corruption, and human rights abuses. Ai's art often reflects his personal experiences and confronts the complexities of contemporary society, whether through his provocative installations or his use of social media to mobilize support and raise awareness for causes. Despite facing harassment, censorship, and even imprisonment by the Chinese authorities, Ai continues to fearlessly use his art as a tool for activism and to inspire global dialogue on pressing social and political issues.

- Yellow Tulips - Contemporary, 21st Century, Silkscreen, Limited Edition, KatzBy Alex KatzLocated in Zug, CHAlex Katz, Yellow Tulips Contemporary, 21st Century, Silkscreen, Limited Edition Edition of 50 + 5 PP + 15 AP 122,5 x 195,7 cm (48.2 x 77 in.) Signed and numbered on the front In mint condition, as acquired from the publisher (Lococo) PLEASE NOTE: Edition numbers could vary from the one shown in the images. All edition available come from the edition /50 The pictures are only for illustrative reasons, the work is offered unframed. “Yellow Tulips” is part of the famous flower painting series by Alex Katz. The aesthetics of flowers such as flags, tulips, and roses has been continuously explored by the artist throughout his career. "I generally start with oil sketches, because I can paint more quickly than I can draw. In this way I try to capture the sensation of what I’m doing, getting into the unconscious and creating the images, and then figuring out what I did." — Alex Katz Katz has been painting flowers since the 1960s, often during his summer residencies in Maine. The cropped, flattened composition displays a debt to Japanese woodblock art printing. The American artist is well-known for his large paintings, whose bold simplicity and unmodulated colours are now seen as precursors of Pop Art. "Yellow Tulips" is another of Katz's wonderfully bright exploration of nature and the landscape. He represents the volumes and colors created by the natural light, this artwork breathes nature, the radiant yellow delights the vision against the limitless black background. The painting “Tulips 4” which this edition is based on belongs to the Collection of Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. ALEX KATZ Alex Katz (American, born 1927) is the outstanding protagonist of figurative painting and one of our era's most acclaimed artists. In the late 1950s, the artist began to develop his mature style, characterized by elegance, simplicity, and stylized abstraction, which typifies his entire production.
