Ai Wei Wei x Eric So – Aibudao Exhibition @ Art Stage Singapore

Internationally renowned artist Ai Wei Wei has collaborated with HK artist Eric So on Aibudao, an exhibition to be shown in the Museum of Art and Design’s booth [C2-02] at the Art Stage Singapore show (1.24 – 1.27).   As you can see in the promo image above,  the two have collaborated on a stylized sculptural rendition of Ai Wei Wei featuring exaggerated elements  including the artist’s flame-like  hair as well as his rather round torso with a treatment that will be fondly familiar to Eric So’s fans.  While the piece looks amazing, we’re left to wonder whether it’s a large-scale sculpture or a smaller fine art multiple, or perhaps both?  We shall see soon enough [well, we’d like to know now…].

‘People will never waver from their faith in the concept of freedom and democracy. Similarly, the evolutionary force of life will never diminish.’ – Ai Wei Wei

‘As artists, we are destined to be challenged by persistence and finding the true meaning of creativity’ – Eric So
