Ai WeiWei ( eye way- way) Born in l957 currently resides in Benijing. He combines contemporary art with art of ancient China.

1.How can art be an asset for maintaining the existence of a culture? (historical, autobiographical, memories through images)

2. What do you think Ai WeiWei is trying to express by incorporating the Chinese Zodiac into large sculptural forms? (displayed throughout the world, Los Angeles, New York, Texas, San Paolo Brazil...Wei-Wei- art is political)
