Thursday January 10th. 2013 Independent Scholars' Evenings: MOVIE: " NEVER SORRY" director Alison Klayman. Ai Weiwei: " Never Sorry: examines the complex intersection of artistic practice and social activism as seen through the life and art of China's preeminent contemporary artist. Ai Weiwei is China's most famous international artist, and its most outspoken domestic critic. Against a backdrop of strict censorship and an unresponsive legal system, Ai expresses himself and organizes people through art and social media. In response, Chinese authorities have shut down his blog, beat him up, bulldozed his newly built studio, and held him in secret detention. AI WEIWEI: NEVER SORRY is the inside story of a dissident for the digital age who inspires global audiences and blurs the boundaries of art and politics. First-time director Alison Klayman gained unprecedented access to Ai while working as a journalist in China. Her detailed portrait provides a nuanced exploration of contemporary China and one of its most compelling public figures. 7.00 p.m. doors open at 6.30 light snacks and beverages are served. 1530 Fifth Avenue, Moline.
