Ai Weiwei is in London in spirit if not in body with his beautiful exhibition 'Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads' at the wonderful Somerset House. The political leanings that have cast Weiwei into the hordes of China's great missing are implicit in every element of his lyrical, exceptional and extraordinarily poignant work. The work barely made it out of China and sadly, may be amongst Ai Weiwei's last.
The Lisson Gallery are also displaying Ai Weiwei's talent focussing on sculpture and hauntingly beautiful cinema pieces.
