Little Mao - Limited Edition 8 of 12 Print

This work is a rather ironic tribute to Mao. The large charcoal (60 inches wide) that was the base for this limited edition (12) of digital 'litho's', printed by the artist on Archival paper, could inspire a small anecdote: When he thoutgh little Mao was growing up, his brilliant teacher of philosophy had two wonderfull french ladies come over to China. “To get to know a few things about the other side. Of the world. Of life.” But already after a few days the ladies hastily left, whispering to each other they returned to Paris. “Sadly enough they could do nothing for young Mao” they said. Much later when Mao had become The Great Leader once in a while he thought about the beautiful creatures his wise teacher had introduced him too. ‘Dictating the world is one thing, quite nice really, but maybe in the end not that satisfying. What did I miss?’ he wondered. Luckily he still had his chickens. What were they called again in France? Ooh yes, his professor told him: “des petits poulets”. That he could remember. That's what I thought about when I drew the charcoal. But maybe this work tells you something different? I hope it inspires you! I know I did two more variations of it in full color. They will be presented soon as well.
