Art About Place Archive: Issue 4

AAP Issue 4

Go behind the scenes of @Large: Ai Weiwei on Alcatraz. Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei raises urgent questions about freedom of expression and human rights in this exhibition of work created for Alcatraz. The exhibition was on view from September 27, 2014 – April 26, 2015.
 
@Large: Ai Weiwei on Alcatraz was presented by the FOR-SITE Foundation in partnership with the National Park Service and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy.

The Making of @Large
 
Art About Place Archive is a bi-weekly series that showcases the FOR-SITE Foundation exhibitions to date. In the spirit of joining together to share our common humanity, we hope these unique videos will help buoy your spirits and offer you creative reprieve during this time. 
While our exhibitions have historically been site-specific, art about place has always been intended to transcend location, to include virtual place, socio-economic, geographic and internal place. With this in mind, we share these beautiful stories to help foster an inspired and generative state regardless of where you are. 
 
Our wish is that the storytelling here will serve to illuminate both our personal histories and our collective values. Please enjoy!
