Ai Weiwei on the refugee crisis – Hirshhorn Museum
Description:
Ai Weiwei discusses his work with refugees around the world. In conjunction with the opening of his major new exhibition, “Ai Weiwei: Trace at Hirshhorn,” the Museum hosted Ai in conversation with Hirshhorn director Melissa Chiu for the annual James T.
