Event Details
Foundry Vineyards is honored to introduce Ai Weiwei to Eastern Washington with an exhibition running through October 31, 2015. Ai’s creative works include film, photography, sculpture, installations, and architectural projects such as the “Bird’s Nest” stadium for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He is internationally praised for the intellectually challenging nature of his artwork and for his candor when speaking against the Chinese government.
Foundry Vineyards will be exhibiting the series Rebar and Case, eight sculptural works whose origin stems from the massive earthquake that shook the Sichuan province in China on May 12, 2008 and took the lives of more than 5,000 schoolchildren. This exhibition is part of a larger body of work by Ai Weiwei that discusses the Sichuan tragedy and the ability for a collective of individuals to find truth in spite of the government.
