Schwimmwesten am Konzerthaus: Der chinesische Künstler Ai Weiwei macht mit einer Aktion auf dem Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin-Mitte auf das Flüchtlingselend aufmerksam
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.
About the exhibition
Sunflower Seeds is made up of millions of small works, each apparently identical, but actually unique. However realistic they may seem, these life-sized sunflower seed husks are in fact intricately hand-crafted in porcelain.
Each seed has been individually sculpted and painted by specialists working in small-scale workshops in the Chinese city of Jingdezhen. Far from being industrially produced, they are the effort of hundreds of skilled hands. Poured into the interior of the Turbine Hall’s vast industrial space, the 100 million seeds form a seemingly infinite landscape.
Porcelain is almost synonymous with China and, to make this work, Ai Weiwei has manipulated traditional methods of crafting what has historically been one of China’s most prized exports. Sunflower Seeds invites us to look more closely at the ‘Made in China’ phenomenon and the geo-politics of cultural and economic exchange today.

There are four works in this image. In the foreground are smashed remains from his Beijing studio, then an amazing jumble of Lego under reconstructed timbers from a Qing dynasty temple, then a lego take on Monet's waterlilies.
