In 2006, a collection of dreamlike portraits and landscapes by Zhang brought in just over $24 million - more than British art phenom Damien Hirst made in all of 2006. At Sotheby's Oct. 4 auction, the highest selling painting was Zhang Xiaogang's "Bloodline: Big Family No. 1," which sold for just under $3 million. In May, at rival auction house Christie's, a diptych of eight masked youths by Zeng Fanzhi fetched...
