Works 2004-2007, Buch, Softcover, 1., Aufl. This new monograph on Ai Weiwei's work offers an overview of and an in-depth reflection on the artist's most vibrant and celebrated projects. Since 1993, Ai Weiwei has been working as an artist, architect, curator, author, and art critic in Beijing. For the first time a major monograph sheds light on the conceptual approaches and the meanings behind Ai Weiwei's work by focusing on thematic topics and the material and media used. The book also includes photographic snaphots of his blog and a discussion of his social sculpture "Fairytale" at Documenta 12 in Kassel for which Ai Weiwei had invited 1001 Chinese citizens to participate, as well as his new works in porcelain. * * Ai Weiwei's daily concerns and experiences with China's cultural and historical space of reference and today's political and social developments in his homeland constitute key elements of this work. He attempts to reach the very essence of China's traditional cultural production. By appropriating and changing the historically shaped cultural languages and their forms and contents, Ai Weiwei often consciously destroys and reconstructs them–thus expanding the contemporary contexts in which the cultural and aesthetic use of materials and meanings are constituted. His most recent wood and porcelain series is about a new understanding of traditional cultural forms and aesthetic processes. The publication shows a variety of works realized by the artist as installations, objects, and videos. * * Published with Galerie Urs Meile, Beijing/Lucerne. Paperback.

Since 1993, Beijing-based Ai Weiwei has created a cohesive body of work in the various guises of artist, architect, curator, writer and critic. This overview, an in-depth reflection on the artist''s most vibrant and celebrated projects, features works from 2004-2007--including installation projects, objects and videos. Focusing on thematic topics, materials and media, it includes screenshots from Ai''s influential blog, as well as a discussion of his infamous social sculpture "Fairytale," which debuted at 2007''s Documenta 12, inviting 1,001 Chinese citizens to participate in hopes of finding, "a way to bring China''s current social condition to Kassel and thus allow Westerners to view a sample of modern Chinese society." Ai''s most recent wood and porcelain series is also featured here, positing a new understanding of traditional Chinese forms, aesthetics and production. This publication includes texts by Charles Merewether, Peter Pakesch and Philip Tinari. The son of the famous Chinese poet Ai Qing, Ai Weiwei was born in 1957 in Beijing.
