Artist Ai Weiwei on His New Graphic Memoir "Zodiac"
Artist Ai Weiwei is known for challenging authoritarian politics in his work. He was detained in China for 81 days on a charge of "state subversion" back in 2011. This failed to discourage the artist in his fight for intellectual freedom, a pursuit passed down to him by his late father. Now Ai Weiwei is exploring that relationship, and his own life story, in his new graphic memoir "Zodiac."
