London artists rally around detained Weiwei

  • 12 years ago
London's artistic community is hoping a show of solidarity will help bring the release of an outspoken Chinese sculptor, held in custody since last month.

Ai Weiwei, 53, is being investigated on suspicion of economic crimes, which his family has said are an unfounded excuse to silence his criticism of the government.
