How Well Can You Give The Finger?
Now this is an art project I can get behind: As part of the ramp-up toward the release of the new documentary “Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry,” the film’s producers have launched a campaign on social networks with the hashtag #RaiseYourFinger, inviting fans of the Chinese artist to submit photographs of themselves giving a middle-finger salute to symbols of injustice. It’s an homage to one of Ai’s pieces that included photos of the artist giving the bird to Beijing’s Tiananmen Square and Olympic stadium.
