Masterpieces by Ai Weiwei
The sculpture pieces titles “Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads” by Ai Weiwei are set to be auctioned in London on the 12th of Februrary. The collection of animal heads made from brass symbolize the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac with a pre-sale estimate of £2-£3 million. The sculptures were based on the zodiac clock-fountain that was once settled in the Beijing palace of the Emperor Qianlong. Phillips will be holding the preview at Phillips Brook Street Gallery from Feb 2-6, so be sure to plan your visit.
