Zodiac sculptures display jailed Chinese artist's vision
(CNN) -- The "Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads" sculpture exhibit features 12 spectacular bronze heads, each 10 feet high, installed in a semicircle at New York's Grand Army Plaza.
Chinese artist Ai Weiwei's "Zodiac Heads" are enlarged versions of those designed in the 18th century by European Jesuits for the Manchu emperor Qianlong as part of his garden palace, the Yuanming Yuan, outside the Qing-era capital, Beijing.
Representing both the 12-year and 24-hour cycles of the Chinese zodiac, the fantastically realist cast bronze animal heads originally adorned the famous fountain clock in the European-style gardens, each spouting water for two hours a day.
The original heads were looted when this vast imperial compound was destroyed by French and British troops during the Second Opium War in 1860, an event that has epitomized China's national humiliation and triggered anti-Westernism ever since.
When the 18th-century heads began to resurface in the international art market in 2000, China was determined to repatriate them at any cost.
