The internet has also changed the rules of the game by allowing anyone to become an author and connect to
a potentially worldwide audience, a privilege that in the past was only accessible to a small elite of established writers and media professionals.
A large portion of the exhibition features works already seen in past solo exhibitions
worldwide, for example works such as Grapes (2011), Divina Proportione (2012), and Study of Perspective (2014)-- while this could
potentially be perceived by trained
audiences as a disappointment, the artist's engagement with the topical refugee issue, in particular his engagement with the group of local photographers, transforms Ai Weiwei at Cycladic into a riveting exhibition.
