Stools (2013), comprising 5,929 wooden stools from the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties and the Republican period, gathered from villages across northern China. The accumulation of individual stools forms a 72-foot square, creating an enormous variegated surface. Very few of these stools remain in Chinese households today, but they were once a ubiquitous staple of domestic life. Each stool reveals traces of use and evokes the experience of generations of lives. Ai Weiwei admires the stools for their simple design and solid structure, a design language that remained unchanged for thousands of years.

Ai Weiwei seems to have had a very up and down relationship with the Chinese rulers. At once stage he had studios in Shanghai and Beijing but the former was demolished by the authorities in 2011, the latter in 2018. Here are the remains of large porcelain works of art they destroyed.

A series of works playing with the idea of a cubic meter, including Treasure Box, Ton of Tea, Crystal Cube, Marble Cube, and Porcelain Cube.

LEGO portraits of 176 people from around the world who have been imprisoned or exiled because of their beliefs or affiliations, most of whom were still incarcerated at the time the artwork was made. Ai Weiwei has called them “heroes of our time.” www.for-site.org/project/ai-weiwei-alcatraz/

With this rendition of a traditional Chinese dragon kite, Ai Wei Wei uses an ancient art form to referencea stark contemporary reality. The artwork features stylized renderings of birds and plants that are icons for nations with records of violating human rights and civil liberties.
