Ai Weiwei:
Ai Weiwei is a multimedia artist who also works in film, writing and social media. Ai Weiwei encapsulates political conviction and his personal poetry in his many sculptures, photographs and public works. In doing this, he makes use of Chinese art forms to display political and social issues. On the 12th of February he has a solo exhibition opening at Kettle’s Yard in which new and existing work will be shown alongside historic Chinese objects. The exhibition will explore notions of truth, authenticity and value, as well as globalisation, the coronavirus pandemic and the current geopolitical crisis.

I watched Oliver Stone when he visited Oxford and now Ai Weiwei visiting Cambridge. Both are great artists, we must remember that the Artist conceives the Idea and the scientists bring it into Reality.

Ai Weiwei is by far my current favorite artist, and it's wonderful to actually get to listen to him talk about his art and experience. Wonderful talk, and I'm so glad it's here for me to listen to from across the world.

"as long as we play along Chinese roles"?! What's the question? We only need abide by the following (the rest is superfluous): 1. No-one shall cause a breach of the peace, 2. No-one shall cause any harm to another, 3. No-one shall cause any loss to another, 4. No-one shall cause any injury to another, and 5. Everyone must remain honourable in their promises and contractual agreements.
