In this weeks Tate Shots, Chinese artist Ai Weiwei talks about the time he spent as a young man living in New York and the 10,000 photographs he took documenting his life and the city. The film was shot and edited by the director Alison Klayman, who has spent the past two years capturing Ai Weiwei's life for AI WEIWEI: NEVER SORRY, the first feature-length documentary film on China's leading contemporary artist and most vocal dissident.

  • Ai must have been brainwashed by the CIA to do what he is doing now. He should be thankful to his motherland for giving him prominence in the Bird Nest and other projects.

    He must know USA took 200 yrs, a civil war and 2 world wars and cold war to arrive. China, almost 200 years, 2 civil wars, at least 4 wars with invaders and 40 years of isolation and a revolution to arrive....wonder how Ai WW can expect to do better.....?? Misguided, Mad and self serving.

  • Nicely done
