On this episode of Center Stage with Mark Gordon, filmmaker Christine La Monte discusses her new documentary Ai Weiwei's Turandot, which follows artist and activist Ai Weiwei as he makes his operatic directorial debut at the Rome Opera House. Known for his fearless art and political engagement, Ai Weiwei reimagines Puccini's classic opera Turandot as a reflection of today's world, where freedom, identity, and resistance collide. La Monte shares insights about working with Ai Weiwei, navigating the impact of the pandemic and the war in Ukraine, and creating a film that explores how art can challenge, provoke, and inspire. 🎧 Center Stage with Mark Gordon is produced in Los Angeles and features conversations with the filmmakers, artists, and storytellers shaping culture today.

“Everything is Art. Everything is Politics.I think art competes with reality. And art will give you the last words.” –Ai WeiweiThe renowned artist and activist Ai Weiwei has used sculpture, photography, documentaries, and large-scale installations to challenge authoritarian power for decades. But his project at the Rome Opera House, directing Puccini's final opera, Turandot, may be his most powerful fusion of art and politics yet. Puccini's original is a fairy tale set in ancient China about a princess whose riddle game costs failed suitors their lives. But Ai Weiwei transformed this story into a stark reflection of the present, weaving in footage of refugee crises, COVID hospitals, and the Ukraine war—a production that became an urgent act of resistance for its Ukrainian conductor and cast. The opera and documentary are a living document of our turbulent times, embodying Ai Weiwei's belief that 'Everything is Art. Everything is Politics.'The new documentary, Ai Weiwei's Turandot, goes behind the curtain to capture the artistic struggle and emotional weight of making this work—a process that began with one vision and was fundamentally changed by a global pandemic and a major war.My guest is the documentary's director, Maxim Derevianko. He grew up in a family with deep ties to the Rome Opera House, and he offers a deeply personal, intimate look at how in Ai Weiwei's words, “art competes with reality, but art will have the last word.”Episode Websitewww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast

“So when we decided to do a documentary to follow Ai Weiwei, we knew, of course, it wouldn't be just a simple opera, and we knew he would bring his own very special and original vision. Because, of course, he is not an opera director. From his point of view, it's a challenge, but from another perspective, it's probably an enrichment for the opera audience because he doesn't follow the rules of opera. And, of course, once you decide to do a documentary about Ai Weiwei, it's in his DNA to be political. Once I started to follow him, the political issues and topics came into the documentary by themselves.”The renowned artist and activist Ai Weiwei has used sculpture, photography, documentaries, and large-scale installations to challenge authoritarian power for decades.

2022 gab Ai Weiwei in Rom sein Operndebüt mit Puccinis unvollendeter Oper „Turandot“. Die Vorbereitungen der aufwendigen, gigantischen Produktion dauerten zwei Jahre, da die Proben zwischenzeitlich wegen der Covid-Pandemie unterbrochen werden mussten. Der italienische Filmemacher Maxim Derevianko war mit der Kamera über den langen Zeitraum dabei und hat zahlreiche Mitwirkende sowie die Intendanz des Theaters zu diesem besonderen Projekt befragt. Seine Dokumentation „Ai Weiweis Turandot“ kommt am 16. Oktober in die Kinos. Kirsten Liese hat ihn bereits gesehen.

To celebrate 20 years of Design Matters, Debbie Millman revisits highlights from her conversations with groundbreaking artists Bisa Butler, Deborah Kass, Marilyn Minter, Amy Sherald, and Ai Weiwei. This anniversary collection brings together the voices of five visionaries whose work challenges conventions, sparks dialogue, and redefines the role of art in our culture. Hosted on Acast.

Ai Weiwei is een Chinees, maar op een AI Weiwei moeten we vooralsnog niet rekenen. In het land van Xi Jingping moeten algoritmes, net als brave burgers, het namelijk niet in hun hoofd halen om zelf te denken. Dat doet de overheid wel voor u. Als ze ooit stuk gaan - en dood gaan we allemaal, niet waar - belandt hun omhulsel toch gewoon op de schroothoop. Met wat geluk valt er nog wat lekkers uit te plukken. Welkom in Computer Club, een podcast door Frederik 'Freddy' De Bosschere & Thomas 'Smollie' Smolders. Met dank aan Sebastiaan Van den Branden & Toon De Pauw voor de technische hulp. Wekelijks bespreken we de actualiteit op vlak van technologie en gaan we op zoek naar interessante feiten en innovaties. Af en toe nodigen we zelfs een gast uit. Er zijn ook jingles.

Christopher Tsai is a deeply thoughtful growth investor. He became one of the foremost collectors of the works of Ai Weiwei, recognising their implicit value and deeply studying the artist. His concentrated portfolio reflects his attraction to growth stocks with Tesla his largest position. In our conversation, he explains why he believes Tesla has deep moats across multiple verticals; why he thinks many of the growth stocks in his portfolio have optically inflated valuations as they invest now to create future value; why the second largest position in his portfolio is QXO, with his father, also a famous investor, being one of Brad Jacobs' original backers; and what he looks for in managers. I am trying to meet more growth investors to understand their strategy better. Christopher's portfolio is too racy for me, at over a 60x P/E multiple on my estimates when we recorded and probably higher today, but he makes an interesting case for holding long-term compounders.

Producers note: Folks, if you've been following this show for a while now, you know we go hard. All of the time. From last week's event in Washington DC to upcoming events later this year, to the non-stop news appearances (not to mention I make Paul walk around New York filming himself talking into a camera), to the multiple organizations he's helping run (Independent Veterans of America, American Veterans for Ukraine, Operation Liberty), we keep the hammer down.  But like Paul's mentor Les Gelb taught him, if you don't take a break you get stupid, and we don't want to get stupid. So today, we're taking a break. And throwing it back to one of our most popular guests and popular episodes with an American Icon that is in the headlines, and in Trump's crosshairs. So this week we're jumping in the Righteous Media time machine and traveling way way back to Episode 78 from September 24, 2020 with Stephen Colbert. It's a great conversation and one we think you'll enjoy revisiting. From Episode 78: “Fear is the mind killer. If you're laughing you're not afraid.” Wise words in this groundbreaking new episode from a truly iconic guest: Stephen Colbert (@StephenAtHome). [06:14] Stephen joins us from his home–uninterrupted and unedited in this fun, candid and inspiring episode. As we enter the most trying and important fall of our lifetime, Angry Americans is bringing in the big guns to get you through this trying time. And there are few bigger than Stephen Colbert.   President Mayhem is sheer chaos. He's doing anything and everything he can to disrupt our country, our unity and our day. And this conversation is the antidote. Stephen and host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) break down the current state of the country and what the future might hold. Stephen beams in from his home office and shares wisdom, jokes and some amazing stories. He talks about his trip to Iraq to visit the troops and why he shaved his head while he was there. His first car story is one of the best we've ever had. His answer to what makes him happy is heartwarming. But also painful. And expensive. This is Stephen Colbert like you've never heard him before. You'll just have to listen.  Because Independent Americans is built on the Righteous Media 5 Is: independence, integrity, information, inspiration and impact. And this episode has it in spades. Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope. It's the truth beyond the headlines–and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.

In 2008, an earthquake in China's Sichuan province killed almost 90,000 people. Many were crushed when school buildings collapsed, exposing their poor construction quality. To counter perceived government suppression of information, the artist Ai Weiwei made an artwork from 90 tonnes of steel bars salvaged from the schools' wreckage. In 2011, Ai Weiwei was detained in harsh conditions for 81 days and banned from leaving China. While his official charge was tax evasion, his detention was widely viewed as a response to his activism. But the artwork, Straight, became a global sensation. Ai Weiwei tells the story to Ben Henderson.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past. We take you to the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes every day, we take you back in time and all over the world, to examine wars, coups, scientific discoveries, cultural moments and much more. Recent episodes explore everything from the death of Adolf Hitler, the first spacewalk and the making of the movie Jaws, to celebrity tortoise Lonesome George, the Kobe earthquake and the invention of superglue. We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: Eva Peron – Argentina's Evita; President Ronald Reagan and his famous ‘tear down this wall' speech; Thomas Keneally on why he wrote Schindler's List; and Jacques Derrida, France's ‘rock star' philosopher. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the civil rights swimming protest; the disastrous D-Day rehearsal; and the death of one of the world's oldest languages.(Photo: Ai Weiwei in front of his artwork, Straight.

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, Adam Green speaks with Mazdak Sanii, CEO of Avant Arte, one of the most fascinating success stories in the art market's print sector over the past several years. What began as an online art community quickly evolved into a powerhouse platform for publishing limited-edition prints by both emerging and established artists. Mazdak shares the story behind Avant Arte's founding and its evolution, explaining how the company has attracted a remarkable roster of collaborating artists, including Ed Ruscha, George Condo, Anish Kapoor, Ai Weiwei, Elizabeth Peyton, and Mickalene Thomas. He also discusses how Avant Arte has successfully differentiated itself in an increasingly saturated market by enhancing the collector experience and building a strong community around the platform. Adam and Mazdak delve into how collector behavior has shifted over the past few years, from the speculative frenzy of flipping to a more thoughtful and measured approach. They also explore key insights from Avant Arte's newly released Collectors Report, offering a glimpse into the most compelling trends shaping the future of the art world.

Richard Christiansen believes that the true definition of luxury is having one's senses on full blast—seeing, tasting, smelling, hearing, and touching the world around by engaging in its beauty and bounty to the fullest. This idea is at the heart of his company, the garden-pleasure apothecary Flamingo Estate, which is both a place—a home and garden on a seven-acre property in the hills of Los Angeles—and a brand, which operates a global farming collective and sells wellness, beauty, and “home essentials” products. In just a few years, Flamingo Estate has collaborated with cultural figures such as Julianne Moore, Martha Stewart, and Ai Weiwei, and created some 200 or so products, from C.S.A.-style farm boxes and flower arrangements, to scented candles and a rosé wine, to body washes and chocolates. Capturing the spirit of all this is a new book, Flamingo Estate: The Guide to Becoming Alive, which tells the story of his company's rapid rise and includes interviews with the likes of Jane Fonda, John Legend, and Alice Waters.On the episode, Christiansen talks about his lifelong connection with beekeeping and honey; why more brands should embrace “radical inconsistency” in their products; and how reading a book by Jane Goodall, and later befriending the anthropologist and conservationist, changed the course of his life.Special thanks to our Season 10 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Richard Christiansen[4:24] Flamingo Estate[8:05] Flamingo Estate: The Guide to Becoming Alive[46:21] Jane Goodall[12:48] Alice Waters[15:06] Harvey[35:35] Chandelier Creative[45:51] Benetton[45:51] Colors[50:35] Rumiko Murata[52:35] Owl Bureau[58:28] “The Summer Day”

Álex Grijelmo, el periodista, fundador de la Fundéu, la fundación del español urgente, publica 'La perversión del anonimato'. Un ensayo sobre este tema crucial hoy en día, sobre mantenerse anónimo, desde esa necesidad de nombrar las cosas, pasando por su relación con el derecho, con la ética, la fiscalidad o la cultura. Cuántos artistas lo han usado para un bien superior, para crear con mayor libertad... Sin ir más lejos en el caso de Banksy. Este 2024 las librerías se agarran aún más si cabe al lema que habían elegido: "El poder transformador de las librerías", y van a destinar un 5% de los beneficios de las ventas de hoy a través de todostuslibros.com a ayudar a las afectadas por la DANA. Hasta uno de esos negocios nos vamos a ir con Mireia Baixauli. Visitamos, con nuestra crítica de arte, Mery Cuesta, la exposición del IVAM valenciano titulada 'NOBOSUDRU', que explica el caso de una fotografía tomada hace casi un siglo en el Congo y de cómo ha sido utilizada y reapropiada de distintas formas.Además, vamos a escuchar a Ai Weiwei, que ha estado en León, en el MUSAC, presentando la muestra Don Quixote. Y ha hablado con nuestra compañera Ángela Núñez y vamos a abrir, como cada lunes, La Pequeteca de Leticia Audibert.Escuchar audio

What's with the dead bodies? Yes, that's an actual question from the New York fairs. This week on the podcast, I invited the artist William Powhida on to the show ostensibly to discuss what we saw last week. The discussion, though, ended up going far deeper.

Transformative Power of Art: Ai Weiwei's Stand for Palestinian Rights and Global Issues.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to https://LauraFlanders.org/donate Thank you for your continued support!Description:  In his recent graphic memoir “ZODIAC: A Graphic Memoir”, the renowned artist Ai Weiwei writes that artists should “ignite stories”, “fight for freedom” and “help us hope.” Over his long and defiant career, he has used his art in a wide variety of media to do just that. His past works such as "Sunflower Seeds" and "Remembering" confronted issues of censorship and human rights abuses in China; in a recent show in London, he asked questions of an AI Chatbot for his project “Ai vs AI”, including “Is there hope for peace?” Earlier this year, he faced criticism for his expressions of support for Palestinian rights and had a show in London canceled. In this wide-ranging conversation with Laura Flanders, they discuss the role of the artist and ask why is “Power so afraid of art and poets?” As attacks on free speech, surveillance and displacement continue to impact so many of us, how do we keep the doors of our minds open to possibility? And how can art and artists help lead transformation? All that, plus a commentary from Laura.“I'm not this kind of very active activist. I'm just being forced to act . . . But I'm proud of doing that because that is the meaning of life, to give dignity to life itself . . .” - Ai Weiwei“The real fear for me is [if] we lost [the] ability to ask the question. We lost our memory, we lost our sense of caring compassion . . .” - Ai Weiwei"We [do] not encourage people to have free thinking and judgment and that is the ground to produce Nazis or hypocrites. And that can come to political disaster . . . We have this kind of censorship because people cannot freely express their feelings.” - Ai WeiweiGuest:  Ai Weiwei: Conceptual Artist, Filmmaker & Human Rights Activist; Author, ZODIAC, A Graphic MemoirFull Episode Notes are located HERE.  They include related episodes, articles, and more.  Full Uncut Conversation (audio podcast)Music In the Middle:  LTJ Xperience remix of “Working On It” by Bread & Souls featuring Rich Medina produced by Mark De Clive Lowe courtesy of Mashi Beats.  And additional music included- "Steppin"  by Podington Bear.
