Ai Weiwei's Shanghai Studio, by ilmambo on Sept 19, 2011 20:28:41 GMT 1, I read the news about the demolishing of his studio early this year if I'm not wrong. It was a very cool building that took years to be designed and built and only a few hours to be took down. the chinese government is very brutal.

Ai Weiwei's Shanghai Studio, by mmmike on Sept 19, 2011 21:19:23 GMT 1, Thanks so much for posting that. I'm trying not to buy any art these days but for Weiwei I'll make an exception. That might be the only Weiwei print I'll ever be able to afford without getting a bank loan. I hope they don't over sell and send me a rejection email.

Or if anyone knows where I can get a coke vase (i'm willing to go into debt for one of those).

The website says it is a 24 x 65 cm Epson Laser Print. I have never seen a print from him for sale like this before.

Or if anyone knows where I can get a coke vase (i'm willing to go into debt for one of those). Well the vase's are Han Dynasty so 2000 years old. But good old ebay you can pick one up for ยฃ500 or less...trouble is an Ai Weiwei painted one is more like ยฃ20-ยฃ30 K
I wonder if this edition was planned before his arrest ? I see it more crudely from Ai in you do me over I take it create something and do you back. (replace 'do' with your own swear word)
Again thanks for posting

Ai Weiwei's Shanghai Studio, by mmmike on Sept 20, 2011 13:32:31 GMT 1, I noticed if you buy something from that site it shows you as signed in to the world. My dad bought the print (different house) then I went on the site and it said I was signed in as him. I also saw another name earlier. Not sure what you can do if you are signed in as another person but I would suggest if you buy make sure you sign out after.

I really hope the site has inventory management of some kind and they are not overselling hundreds of these.
