Ai Weiwei

Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto

Although Chinese artist Ai Weiwei is one of the most prolific, provocative and significant artists at work today, audiences in North America have had little exposure to his vast and varied output. That will change this summer, when the AGO becomes the only Canadian stop on a North American tour that is already drawing crowds - and controversy - at the Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, D.C. Featuring photographs, sculpture, installation art and audio and video pieces, Ai Weiwei: According to What? examines how the artist spotlights the complexities of a changing world and probes such issues as freedom of expression, individual and human rights, the power of digital communication and the range of creative practice that characterizes contemporary art today both in China and globally. Organized by Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, and the Art Gallery of Ontario. Admission: Adult 19.50, Senior (65+), Student (Full Time with Valid ID), Youth (6-17) 16, Family Pass (2 adults and up to 5 youths) 49, Child (5 and under) FREE, Wednesday nights (6-8:30 pm) FREE.
