Title: Ai Weiwei
Post by: Joe Jones on
Ai Weiwei\'s retrospective is set to open this week at the London Royal Academy of Art, with reviewers already describing it as one of the best exhibitions in years.It\'s one of the most important exhibitions of the renowned Chinese artist's work for a long time, not least because it has coincided with the unexpected return of the artist's passport by Chinese authorities after four years, enabling him to travel to London for the opening and even assist with the final preparation of the exhibition.What do you make of Ai\'s work, and his status as persona non grata among the Chinese authorities?

I don\'t know much about his art, if it wasn\'t for China I doubt many would but I find the whole restricting him to travel pathetic.
Sorry, I can\'t add more.

Is he still banned or limited with his activties? I know they have allowed him to travel but it seems stupid tbh.
