Preliminary Research

In this assignment, I am going to create an art piece that is inspired by the artist I selected—Ai Weiwei. I will attach 4 potential research questions, 2 related research sources, and a mood board image below. By doing so, I will be able to present all the preliminary research  I’ve done so far, and where to go next.

Research Questions:

Why Aiweiwei was detained by Chinese government?

What is the political message in the work Sunflower seeds?

Why Ai choose to become the leader of art movement in China?

What are the intentions behind Ai’s works?
