Artist Ai Weiwei speaks to journalists at the courtyard of his studio in Beijing, China, Wednesday, May 22, 2013. Ai's music video accompanying his heavy metal single “Dumbass’’ released Wednesday depicts an insensitive, overbearing state power that tramples on individual rights.

Ai later was convicted of tax evasion, which his supporters saw as punishment for his activism. (AP Photo/Alexander F. Yuan)
