His artistic practice is inextricably linked with cultural engagement and willingly crosses barriers between different media—cultural, artistic, and social. It was perhaps his detention from 2011 until August 2015 by the Chinese government that brought his views to the greatest audience. Ai Weiwei now lives in Germany and continues to create new works and uses his significant international profile to promote artistic and personal freedom.  These twelve sculptures depict the animals associated with the traditional Chinese zodiac. Ai Weiwei’s cycle references a European rendering of the zodiac animals designed by the Italian Jesuit Giuseppe Castiglione. The original sculptures were built in the eighteenth century for an elaborate water-clock fountain at the Yuanming Yuan (Old Summer Palace), which was ransacked in 1860. By recreating the lost and displaced statues, Ai Weiwei engages issues of looting, repatriation, and cultural heritage while expanding upon ongoing themes in his work concerning the “fake” and “copy” in relation to the original.  Ai Weiwei now works in Berlin, Germany.</div>

Der weltberühmte chinesische Gegenwartskünstler Ai Weiwei ist Bildhauer, Installationskünstler, Architekturdesigner, Kurator sowie Sozial- und Kulturkritiker und stellt seine Werke seit Ende der 1990er Jahre international aus. Seine künstlerische Praxis ist untrennbar mit kulturellem Engagement verbunden und überschreitet bereitwillig die Grenzen zwischen verschiedenen Medien - kulturell, künstlerisch und sozial. Vielleicht war es seine Inhaftierung durch die chinesische Regierung von 2011 bis August 2015, die seine Ansichten einem großen Publikum nahebrachte. Ai Weiwei lebt heute in Deutschland und schafft weiterhin neue Werke und nutzt seine große internationale Bekanntheit, um für künstlerische und persönliche Freiheit zu werben. Die zwölf Skulpturen stellen die Tiere dar, die mit dem traditionellen chinesischen Tierkreis assoziiert werden. Der Zyklus von Ai Weiwei bezieht sich auf eine europäische Darstellung der Tierkreiszeichen, die von dem italienischen Jesuiten Giuseppe Castiglione entworfen wurde. Die Originalskulpturen wurden im 18. Jahrhundert für einen kunstvollen Wasseruhrbrunnen im Yuanming Yuan (Alter Sommerpalast) geschaffen, der 1860 geplündert wurde. Durch die Nachbildung der verlorenen und verschobenen Statuen setzt sich Ai Weiwei mit den Themen Plünderung, Rückführung und kulturelles Erbe auseinander und erweitert gleichzeitig seine Arbeit um die Themen "Fälschung" und "Kopie" im Verhältnis zum Original. Ai Weiwei arbeitet heute in Berlin, Deutschland.
