On April 3, internationally acclaimed Chinese artist Ai Weiwei was detained at the Beijing airport while en route to Hong Kong, and his papers and computers were seized from his studio compound.

Please sign this online petition in hope that we, as members of the international arts community, could together hasten the release of our visionary friend.
