**Ai Weiwei Speaks: With Hans Ulrich Obrist** - Because who doesn't want to eavesdrop on conversations between two art world legends?
This isn't your typical stuffy art book. It's an intimate chat between controversial Chinese artist Ai Weiwei and curator extraordinaire Hans Ulrich Obrist, covering everything from creative freedom and political resistance to the messy realities of making art under an authoritarian regime. Weiwei's sharp wit and unflinching honesty shine through as he discusses his activism, imprisonment, and why dropping a Han Dynasty urn might just be the ultimate artistic statement.
Perfect for art enthusiasts, political junkies, and anyone curious about what happens when creativity collides with power. Obrist, known for his marathon interview sessions with cultural icons, draws out Weiwei's most candid thoughts on censorship, exile, and artistic rebellion.
This preloved paperback from Patina Paperbacks has character - just like its subject.
**Reader Reviews:**
"Finally, an art book that doesn't put me to sleep! Weiwei's brutal honesty about the art world is refreshing."
"Fascinating insight into how political art actually gets made. Makes you rethink everything."
