"If there is one person who is still not free, then I am not; if there is one person who still suffers from insult and humiliation, then I do. Do you understand yet?" ~ Ai Weiwei

One of the best articles on Ai Weiwei's detention that I have read yet:

Ai Weiwei: the dissident artist | Art and design | The Guardian
www.guardian.co.uk
He filled Tate Modern's Turbine Hall with sunflower seeds and campaigned against corruption. Then last month China's most provocative artist disappeared. Hari Kunzru on Ai Weiwei.

Please also see my call for a counter exhibition or lecture series to Milwaukee's 'Summer of China":
