Ai Weiwei

By awarding Chinese dissident Ai Weiwei a professorship, the Universität der Künste (UdK) and the Einstein Foundation have invited one of the most famous contemporary artists to Berlin and made a political statement in support of the artist, who was still in prison at the time of his appointment. Weiwei will support the Graduate School for the Arts and Sciences in Berlin and also work with students at Danish artist Olafur Eliasson's Institute for Spatial Experiments.

Ai Weiwei is one of the most famous contemporary artists and teaches as Einstein guest professor at the Universität der Künste in Berlin, where he has been living since 2015.
