Murano Glass. Signed and numbered on the accompanying certificate and inscribed on the bottom. Less than 40 compiled with matching numbers out of the total edition of 100. Ai Weiwei’s Vases in Five Colours (2024) is a limited-edition set of five Murano glass vessels, each rendered in a distinct hue—cobalt blue, black, amber, white, and emerald green. Shaped in the form of traditional Chinese storage jars but embossed with the iconic Coca-Cola logo, these works merge ancient craft with contemporary global branding. Weiwei critiques cultural homogenization and consumerism, referencing both Duchamp’s readymades and his own history of repurposing classical forms. Each vase measures 22 x 20.5 cm and is signed and numbered on the base and certificate. Fewer than 40 complete sets with matching edition numbers exist from the total edition of 100.

What is minimalism?
Minimalism is a style in music and visual arts characterized by pared-down designs and simplicity. It began in Western art after World War II, gaining prominence particularly in American visual arts. Minimalism draws heavily on aspects of modernism and is often viewed as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism, as well as a precursor to post-minimal art practices. Prominent minimalist artists include Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Robert Morris, Frank Stella, and Dan Flavin.
