Ai Weiwei is Instagramming his vacation, and we're all quite jealous
Check out this global art star's lovable Instagram pics from his Mediterranean getaway.
Take a quick glance through the Instagram account of Ai Weiwei, and it becomes apparent that the life of a global art star is a pretty good one.
The Chinese conceptual artist has been spending time in Israel this week ahead of the opening of his exhibition, "Maybe, Maybe Not," at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. He's been bouncing around the country with friends and family, visiting the Dead and Mediterranean Seas and seemingly everything in between, all the while documenting it on the photo-sharing site.
Weiwei has become one the most sought-after names in the Western art world over the last decade. He first came to the attention of a global audience after working with star architecture team Herzog & de Meuron to design Beijing's Olympic Stadium. In the intervening years he's held countless shows around the world, been named to Time Magazine's Time 100 list, and had a hit documentary made about him. And, it appears, he's been having a good time along the way.
