Art About Place Archive: Issue 2

@Large: Ai Weiwei on Alcatraz featured a series of seven site-specific installations by Ai Weiwei- a Chinese contemporary artist known for his socially-, politically-, and culturally-incisive work. The exhibition, which ran from September 27, 2014 through April 26, 2015, offered a new cultural lens through which to experience the former penitentiary-turned-national park.

Please enjoy a special virtual tour of the seven installations, presented by the FOR-SITE Foundation in partnership with the National Park Service and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy. Great thanks to the partnership with the media technology company, Matterport, that allows @Large to be viewed in immersive 3D.
