AI WEIWEI
February 3 – June 10, 2012
Curator: Tessa Praun
“Ai Weiwei has remarkable sensibility and strength in his visual expression, which is effective in conveying a rather complex and significant content. When I met Ai Weiwei in his studio he had just been held under house arrest for a few days. He was calm but keenly aware that he was already in a very uncertain and tenuous situation. After the events of the past year I think that it is ever more important for elements of his political work to be present in the exhibition.”
/Tessa Praun, curator at Magasin 3, met Ai Weiwei in fall 2010 at his Beijing studio to begin work on the exhibition.
