Ai Weiwei:

Well, this is Rubens' work. My father loves Rubens. I think he just loves those very strong physical muscles and the nudities of those, you know, beautiful compositions. And for me, it's the perfect piece to structure a Lego work, but I have to add some personal touch on it. So, I put a panda behind this, a horse. Panda in China, nickname of the secret police. So, we will say, oh, he's a Panda, that means he works undercover. So, I use that to describe China and Europe's relations. It's just, with some personal, even family influence of classics, of the western art, and also, with modern China's connection.
