  • This #TBT we’re taking it all the way back to the assembly of “Trace,” which was the first work of Weiwei’s to utilize his now signature material, LEGO bricks. While the 38 Chinese portraits were assembled by Weiwei’s studio, the rest of the 176 portraits were assembled right here in San Francisco by 82 volunteers. It was a clandestine operation (we of course wanted to keep the work a secret until the exhibition opening), and an intense one — just look at the portrait being assembled here! (Note: this is “Trace” volunteer @_colinwright, who also happens to be one of the editors on the @YoursTrulyDoc film. We ❤️ our FOR-SITE family!). Oh, and let us leave you with this final boggling statistic: “Trace” was comprised of 1.2 MILLION LEGO bricks 🤯 (swipe to photo 2 for a glimpse at what that looks like.) __ #ArtAboutPlace #AiWeiwei #YoursTrulyDoc #Alcatraz
  • Messages of hope and support are currently making their way from San Francisco to prisoners of conscience around the world. Thank you to everyone who wrote a postcard at last week’s world premiere screening of @yourstrulydoc! . . . . . . . . . . #YoursTrulyDoc #AiWeiwei #ArtAboutPlace #SFFILM #SFFILMFestival
  • Behind @YoursTrulyDoc is an incredible team of editors, producers, designers, and more. A huge shout-out to this talented bunch! __ Photo: @claudinegossett #YoursTrulyDoc #AiWeiwei #SFFILM #SFFilmFestival
