Adrian is Exhibitions Curator at London's Royal Academy of Arts. His latest exhibition is 'Ai Weiwei', soon to open at the Academy. Planning and creating the show has been challenging, necessitating visits to Beijing as the artist, of course, cannot travel outside China. As a result a 'virtual' tour of the gallery spaces was created, so Ai Weiwei could best understand the locations in which his work would appear. For Ceramic Review (see page 14) Adrian explores the artist's 'dialogue with ceramics'.
