As his personal circumstances constantly change, Ai Weiwei remains a cultural magnet. Renowned for his political activism and social media activity almost as much as for his social interventions, his contemporary approach to the ready-made and his knowledge of traditional Chinese craftsmanship, Ai’s fame extends across the art world and beyond.
Extracted from TASCHEN’s limited collector’s edition, this monograph explores each of the phases of Ai’s career up to his release from Chinese custody. It presents extensive visual material to trace Ai’s development from his early days in New York to his recent practice. Highlights include his international breakthrough in the early 2000s, his porcelain Sunflower Seeds at Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall, his response to the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, and his police detention in 2011. With behind-the-scenes studio images, production stills and numerous statements derived from exclusive interviews with Ai, we gain privileged access to the artist’s process, influences and importance.
