Divina Proportione
A monumental work by Chinese dissident artist Ai Weiwei, *Divina Proportione* engages with the Renaissance concept of divine harmony and mathematical beauty, reframing it through a contemporary, politically charged lens. The title, borrowed from Luca Pacioli's 15th-century treatise on geometry and proportion, invites reflection on systems of order, power, and human value. True to Weiwei's practice, the work challenges viewers to question who defines beauty, balance, and worth in today's fractured world.
