From this week a seven-meter-high installation entitled Gilded Cage, by the exiled Chinese artist and human rights campaigner Ai Weiwei (艾未未), will be on display at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire. The piece, originally constructed for Central Park in New York in 2017, was made as a reflection on the worldwide refugee crisis. Ai, 64, is currently based in Lisbon. This conversation took place last week by phone.
<strong>
Tim Adams: Tell me a little bit about Gilded Cage. How did it come about?
Ai Weiwei:</strong> I made it not long after I came out of China after four or five years of detention.
