The Artists Hand by Ai Weiwei (China, 1957)

Description: The Artists Hand by Ai Weiwei (China, 1957). An exclusive new rhodium-plated object by world-renowned artist Ai Weiwei. Irreverent and striking, this exclusive new rhodium-plated cast model of Ai Weiwei’s hand has been created by the artist on the occasion of his ambitious new citywide Public Art Fund exhibition Good Fences Make Good Neighbors, which was on view in New York City Oct 2017 – Feb 2018. The gesture is adapted from Ai’s famed photo series, Study of Perspective (ongoing since 1995), in which his left arm is extended forward with his middle finger raised in front of significant global landscapes, buildings, and monuments. A rejection of authority and political oppression, and an affirmation of individual expression, Artist’s Hand is the embodiment of the artist’s ethos. Limited release of only 1,000 issued. Published in 2017. Artist’s signature inscribed on the base.
