Forever Friday

Nuit Talks - The Era of Activism

Controversy, political activism, art, film, music, social media and fame are all part of the global phenomenon that is international artist Ai Weiwei (Forever Bicycles). Nuit Talks presents Forever Friday, an exclusive addition to this year's Nuit Talks series, exploring the theme of freedom of speech and artistic expression through art.


Forever Bicycles - Ai Weiwei
3144 bicycles in three dimensional structure. Yong Jiu, literally translated as "forever", is the foremost bicycle brand in China; Ai re-interprets such everyday found objects in an abstract and symbolic way.

Life Is A Dance

Something most people don't know about me is that I love the ballet. Ever since I saw the Nutcracker for the first time & put on my first pair of ballet slippers I was hooked. Life is a dance and though some days we don't even want to think about dancing, today's smile helps me to remember a passion I had almost forgotten.
