This is a comprehensive monograph on Ai Weiwei, a key figure in China's burgeoning art scene. Often working with ancient materials - beams from destroyed temples, Han dynasty urns - Ai Weiwei creates ingenious sculptures that break new artistic ground while commenting on the rapid transformation of contemporary China.
