Similarly, handcuffs become an intriguing object when the rigid metal is replaced by smoothed wood or green jade, and the shape of an everyday clothes hanger is maintained when it is made from lustrous crystal or polished metal, that transform it into a sparkling object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint26px1070-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Marble &quot;leather&quot; armchairs\" class=\"wp-image-39122\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint26px1070-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint26px1070-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint26px1070-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint26px1070-1-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint26px1070-1-59x39.jpg 59w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint26px1070-1.jpg 1070w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Marble &#8220;leather&#8221; armchairs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"818\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW120023mx1070-1-1024x818.jpg\" alt=\"Everyday objects made from crystal\" class=\"wp-image-39130\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW120023mx1070-1-1024x818.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW120023mx1070-1-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW120023mx1070-1-768x614.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW120023mx1070-1-200x160.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW120023mx1070-1.jpg 1070w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Everyday objects made from crystal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW130006_2mx1070-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"A marble gasmask | Use of traditional materials from the world of art to create contemporary objects\" class=\"wp-image-39126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW130006_2mx1070-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW130006_2mx1070-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW130006_2mx1070-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW130006_2mx1070-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIW130006_2mx1070-1.jpg 1070w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>A marble gasmask | Use of traditional materials from the world of art to create contemporary objects<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The issue of maintaining shape is reinforced in Weiwei&#8217;s \u2018Forever&#8217; series bicycle installations. His inquiry into general shape creates a strong structure that cannot be dismantled. Try to remove one bicycle &#8211; the whole structure will collapse. The power of the installation is driven by the uniformity and non-variance of the items comprising it, whether it is a two-dimensional bicycle structure on a wall in the gallery, or a massive, complex structure made from more than 3,000 bicycles, like the installation that was exhibited last year in Toronto&#8217;s Nathan Phillips Square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint2px1070-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39124\" title=\"Ai Weiwei | Gallery Lisson, London | Exhibitions\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint2px1070-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint2px1070-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint2px1070-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint2px1070-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint2px1070-1.jpg 1070w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent years the bicycle has become an object that challenges designers and artists, and a subject of exhibitions in its own right. In the \u2018Free Wheel&#8217; exhibition in 2013 here at Design Museum Holon, about a hundred iconic bicycles were presented from the perspectives of design, history, and innovation. It is interesting to recall the circuitous route in the Upper Gallery where bicycles from architect Michael Embacher&#8217;s impressive private collection were suspended from the ceiling. This route enabled visitors to enjoy the path that opened up before them, and at the same time to wander among bicycles and examine structures, shapes, and materials. Try to remove one bicycle &#8211; nothing will happen to the structure, but we will lose a story or a technique or an idea, whether it is a bicycle that served paratroopers during World War One, or one ridden by professional cyclists in the Tour de France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint38px673_1070-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39132\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint38px673_1070-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint38px673_1070-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint38px673_1070-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint38px673_1070-1-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint38px673_1070-1-59x39.jpg 59w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint38px673_1070-1.jpg 1070w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Ai Weiwei&#8217;s bicycles in Lisson Gallery, London<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>By contrast, Weiwei&#8217;s bicycles provide a completely different experience. They are not really the story, and their clean, polished metal appearance does not evoke a connotation of riding in a dusty, sweaty city, or hilly, off-road cycling in wild, natural landscapes. The real story here is the structure, the overall shape, the whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shifting the view from the overall structure to the individual item evokes wonder at the delicate welding of the metal bicycle pieces that were created by an artist. But in fact, there is hardly any point in lingering over the small details once you have examined one bicycle, since all the bicycles comprising the installation are identical and equal, and it is only the connections between them that hold the structure stable and firm. Did someone mention Communism?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint27px1070-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39120\" title=\"Ai Weiwei | Gallery Lisson, London | Exhibitions\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint27px1070-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint27px1070-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint27px1070-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint27px1070-1-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint27px1070-1-59x39.jpg 59w, https:\/\/www.dmh.org.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/WEIWint27px1070-1.jpg 1070w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Exhibition closes on July 19, 2014Lisson Gallery, London<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gili Yuval ponders what esteemed Chinese artist Ai Weiwei&#8217;s exhibition, currently showing in London, and last year&#8217;s \u2018Free Wheel&#8217; exhibition at the Museum, have in common.
