"If my art has nothing to do with people's pain and sorrow, what is 'art' for?" Ai Weiwei.
A great example of a man of integrity and imagination.
His fierceness seems echoed in the lion, his playfulness in the putto !

Wonderful series of photos, Heidi! This installation is honest, bold and is even quite beautiful to look at. (But, I dislike his self-portrait as the drowned Syrian boy very much.)
