We can easily see this enlarged, framed , and hanging on the wall in the study. The owner would sit back and wait for the visitor to ask, “But…..what does it MEAN?” And there, the conversation would take off.

Thank you Joe. I’ve learned about Ai Weiwei today.
I like the picture. Just as perplexing as the installation itself.
I wonder though how an installaion can travel without the artist. It’s not like a painting or a sculpture.

Me, too. I just did some reading about Ai Weiwei.
Very interesting! I would love to see this!
When I first saw your photo, I thought where are the Birds?
I just went to this exhibit, and of course your pictures are better than mine….but the Ai WeiWei sunflower seeds is something you HAVE to see in person, too. I mean… hand-painted porcelain? Amazing.
