Ai Weiwei – Cento milioni di semi di girasole in porcellana
Ai Weiwei, is a Chinese artist who fights for human and civil rights. Architect, designer, director, he is the author of provocative and irreverent works through which he describes China and denounces some of the decisions of his government. In 2008 he created an installation full of meanings: 100 million sunflower seeds in hand-decorated porcelain according to Chinese artisan tradition. Ai Weiwei\’s works allow us to reflect on the human condition, its evolutions and its contradictions.
