He does a lot of plays on words, which needs some explanation as they are plays on Chinese words. This is basically how to say F*** You and his country in marble over and over and over again.
Graphic design made into wallpaper commenting on his, and china as a whole's, state of surveillance.

Well, he is all about irreverence and sharing, so really, no one could complain. We did wipe it off afterwards too.
Very cool chairs, Quin dynasty, or in the style of.
From a video of the destruction of his studio in China. The authorities decided to destroy it 20 days after it was finished.
Ai Weiwei filming the destruction.
The giant pneumatic drills looked like birds, or enormous dinosaurs.
Speaking of dinos, didn't even know this existed, must go there.
Wandering back, we went by this cool building

Wow...not sure Charlotte would be that happy with the comment...he's distinctive anyway but not necessarily the most svelt and sexy guy on the planet.
ElP, yes, that is the twitter bird on the wallpaper, he had it designed, he uses social media tremendously in his bid to comment on China's very high level of control on him and on social media...hence the surveillance cameras and the handcuffs.....
