I'm in DC and just saw the Ai Weiwei fountain at the Hirshorn. Great piece, inspired by the Qing Dynasty zodiac clock (Garden of Perfect Brightness) royal retreat near Beijing, that was destroyed in 1860. Strange and strong piece. How do you feel about the post-modern idea of co-option of images?
Do a piece about this idea either pro or con. see you next week. john
