@艾未未 is working on a new show about the refugee crisis:
.
Titled #SafePassage, the exhibition continues Weiwei’s activism around the #refugee crisis and will draw parallels between the artist’s reasons for leaving his own homeland, when his passport was finally returned to him in July 2015, with the experiences that migrants and refugees face when leaving theirs, such as risking “their lives to reach Europe, often to find their path barred by arduous asylum procedures and xenophobia”, as explained in the show’s press release.
.
Split into two parts, #SafePassage will begin with works created during Weiwei’s time under surveillance by the Chinese government, before exploring work created when and after he left China for Europe to make a new home and set up his studio in Berlin. This shift can be seen mostly through his process of “self-surveillance” – defined by his constant updates on his Instagram feed, which has, since first visiting the Greek Island of Lesbos in December last year, “functioned as a de facto real-time newswire” as he travelled to various camps.
.
The second half of his show will see the artist cover the walls of FOAM with thousands of, mostly candid, pictures of the living conditions in the camps, shot on his mobile phone. Said to “reflect the vast array of personal encounters” that Weiwei experienced with different people in the camps, the wall display will be accompanied by his marble sculptures, “Chang’an Boulevard” (2004) and “On The Boat” (2016).
.
#SafePassage will run at @foam_amsterdam from 16 September – 7 December 2016. - words @ashleighkane
