Artist Ai Weiwei on His New Graphic Memoir "Zodiac"
Season 2024
Episode 6152
About the Episode
Artist Ai Weiwei is known for challenging authoritarian politics in his work. He was detained in China for 81 days on a charge of "state subversion" back in 2011. This failed to discourage the artist in his fight for intellectual freedom, a pursuit passed down to him by his late father. Now Ai Weiwei is exploring that relationship, and his own life story, in his new graphic memoir "Zodiac."
