Foto de stock - Wrapped Zodiac Heads, a sculpture project by Ai Weiwei, the world-renowned Chinese artist and critic of the Beijing regime, was put on display outside the Trade Fair Palace in Prague, Czech Republic, February 5, 2016. The author in person wrapped his works in thermal blankets, usually used for refugees and migrants, as a protest against Czech official migration policy. Zodiac, which will be personally presented by Ai Weiwei this evening, expresses criticism of the European war intervention in China in the late 19th century and of the present arts market. Ai Weiwei will stay in Prague on February 5-6. Apart from presenting his work, he will attend two discussion meetings in which human rights and migration are likely to be touched on. Zodiac consists of 12 large bronze animal heads. It will remain on display in front of the palace, which hosts NG's collections of modern and contemporary arts, until the end of August. The Zodiac sculptures were created as copies of the sculptures that two European Jesuits designed for the former Chinese emperor in the 18th century. The original statues formed a water clock in the fountain of the Old summer palace in Beijing. It was pilfered by the French and British soldiers during the Opium Wars in the mid-19th century.
