installation

Ai Weiwei has made an installation work that depicts his time in captivity under the Chinese authorities during 2011. There are six fiberglass dioramas within 2.5-ton iron boxes that are on display at a church-turned-art gallery for the Zuecca Project Space, during the 2013 Venice Biennale.
