Overview:
This piece is part of Shout, one of He Jun’s most powerful and thought-provoking series. It captures a politically charged moment during the 2024 U.S. election—the shooting of Donald Trump. Rather than recreating the event realistically, the artist uses symbolic composition, bold ink tones, and expansive negative space to elevate the scene into a broader social and emotional metaphor.
The figures are distilled to their essence, while the dark ink background surges like a tide, amplifying a sense of tension, confrontation, and collective unrest. Through the fluidity and subtlety unique to ink painting, the impact extends beyond the visual surface, inviting deeper philosophical reflection and emotional resonance.
He Jun’s work is not merely about the event itself; it reflects the fissures, outcries, and shared anxieties of a turbulent era. This piece is a key work within the Shout series, exemplifying the artist’s mature visual language and conceptual depth.
Measuring138 × 68cm (54.3 × 26.8 in), the large scroll format creates a commanding visual presence and a quiet yet intense atmosphere.
Each piece comes with the artist’s original signature and a gallery-issued certificate of authenticity, ensuring uniqueness, provenance, and collectible value.
