Ai Weiwei's Chinese Zodiac Heads Now Circle Boston's Greenway

Ai Weiwei's Chinese Zodiac heads have now been installed on Boston's Rose Kennedy Greenway, where they will summer near the park's Rings Fountain.

As WBUR's Andrea Shea reported in early March, the famous and controversial Chinese activist-artist's 12 bronze statues — collectively called "Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads" — are intended "to highlight global issues of looting and repatriation of cultural treasures."

The touring art installation officially rolled in on Monday. Since then, the statues have certainly been turning heads.

Here are some images, including a video, of the works on display:
