Study of Perspective - White House Skate Deck by Ai Weiwei

This skateboard deck comes ready to hang with mounting hardware and is limited edition. Each edition features a screen-print signature.

Ai Weiwei is known for melding art and activism. The image for this series is based on Weiwei’s provocative series called "Study of Perspective" that was originally presented during a controversial art exhibition “Fuck Off” which ran alongside the Third Shanghai Biennale in 2000. This larger series of images were shot between 1995-2003 and show the artist flipping the finger against different buildings across the globe, either landmarks or symbols of authority.  The gesture, captured using a snapshot aesthetic, confronts its viewer with a universal and concise statement of his political opposition.

Our partners at The Skateroom, who collaborated with Weiwei for this edition, donate a significant part of their profit to support social initiatives that make the world a better place.

In this solo edition, the artist embodies a woman lying still on the forest floor. Her pale face is covered in dirt and her white hair appears disheveled. She stares ahead with a lifeless expression, perhaps already dead. Which horrors has she encountered on her woodland path? What story hides behind her petrified gaze? Cindy Sherman takes our minds on a cinematic journey and sets the scene for us to write our own ending.
