Ai Weiwei
Born in 1957 in Beijing, Weiwei is a controversial contemporary Chinese artist not shy about speaking out against the Chinese government's handling of democracy and human rights. In 2011 Weiwei was arrested and held by police for over two months, supposedly for tax evasion. Many believe Weiwei was instead arrested for his continued level of contempt of the Chinese government.
