#SafePassage
Foam presents a large solo exhibition by the Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei (1957, China).
The exhibition #SafePassage in Foam deals with the fate of the individual versus the overruling systems of society, switching from Ai Weiwei’s personal experiences as a refugee of the Chinese Government, to the hundreds of thousands refugees and migrants who risked their lives to reach Europe, only to find their path barred by a succession of border closures.
