'Cutting off my finger was my proudest moment', The Independent, Friday 14 December 2012 Dissident Chinese artist Sheng Qi is less recognisable than his peer Ai Weiwei, but his work is just as subtly provocative.

Some of of his work focuses on replicating this act of anger and defiance, while other works subvert stereotypical images of Chinese power and propaganda. 伦敦艺术展解读“神坛上的毛泽东” BBC中文网 子川 中国艺术家盛奇的“走进世界的人民币·走进神坛的毛主席”个展周二（11月6日）在伦敦“画”画廊开幕。 Sheng Qi: «Europa me ha enseñado humanidad» Marbella acoge hasta el próximo 15 de septiembre una veintena de obras del polémico artista censurado en su país Exhibe por primera vez en España su producción que refleja la crudeza de la represión china.

His new work, a series of history paintings and a set of hundreds of painted skulls, exudes an aesthetic sombreness which is unprecedented and marks a new stage in his development as an artist. click to read more >> An interview with Sheng Qi, William Corwin A shipment of bronze astronauts has just arrived at Sheng Qi's hangar-like studio.There are ten half-scale and four life-size sculptures.They don't stick out all that much, surrounded by giant paintings of Lhasa, protesters, execution squads, busts of Mao, a drum set (hallmark of artistic coolness), and, at the center of the room, a low table with a miniature Tian'amen Gate surrounded by toy-like tanks, one or two of them overturned. click to read more >> Sheng Qi on the past, present and future of China, David Green - Special to GlobalPost, June 3, 2009 BEIJING — Leaning against a wall of the F2 Gallery in the east end of Beijing's Dashanzi art district is a painting of an attractive Chinese public security official.
