The painting “Red Boat” was dedicated to the Communist party’s 100th anniversary.
The idea behind the painting was not to show communist propaganda or anti-communism but existential psychology of the people living at a given moment in China.
The painting doesn’t give the answer but asks the question- is it good or bad.
It’s up to you to conclude.
