"My art shakes the foundation of their legitimacy, and that probably is the obstacle they can never overcome. It's not possible for them to face my challenge." —Artist and activist Ai Weiwei (@aiww) on standing up to power in #China and his 81-day secret detention FRIDAY

Snowden on @aiww’s memoir: “I have a book that has touched me, a book that I’ve been reading to my son…In the final pages, Ai writes: “Freedom is not a goal, but a direction.” And, I might add, wherever it leads you is home.” edwardsnowden.substack.com/p/culturalrevo…

My memoir 1000 Years of Joys and Sorrows is out today. I wanted to tell my story and my father's, so that my son would know who we were and what we had experienced as a poet and as an artist. #aiweiweibook smarturl.it/aiweiweibook

“After all the convulsions that China had experienced, genuine emotions and personal memory were reduced to tiny scraps and easily replaced by the discourse of struggle and continuous revolution” -@aiww. Ai does not allow his own scraps to remain buried. nytimes.com/2021/10/30/boo…

At 64, @aiww is highly revered for his prodigious body of work that includes photos, sculptures, books and more. We chat with Ai Weiwei in our Nov. 2021 issue about art, activism and his upcoming memoir (coming to shelves Nov. 2). bit.ly/3GFaKxc

Wow - @aliklay of @AWWNeverSorry fame is back with a vengeance with new fly-on-the-wall documentary @TheBrinkFilm profiling #SteveBannon on his "global mission to spread far-right nationalism" youtube.com/watch?time_con…

The use of graphics and the in-depth storytelling with several characters allows you to see the universal themes within this very Chinese story.

Check out one of our favorite China films: A real-life Black Mirror story about China's digital idol-making universe. SXSW-winner PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF DESIRE is now available to rent on iTunes: apple.co/2R78g3Q and Amazon (amzn.to/2Rp2BX8)

One of my favourite docs on Ai Weiwei is available to watch on TVO for free, "Never Sorry." Watch it if you're interested in the intersection of art, activism, social media, & censorship @aliklay @AWWNeverSorry @aiwwenglish @tvo tvo.org/video/document…

I’ve just watched @AWWNeverSorry. I feel so privileged to live in the same world as @aiww. It’s an important, thought-provoking and intriguing documentary you must see (to the very end). I’m writing this tweet in support of the end of the documentary, as well as to freedom.
