2020 AI WEIWEI SUNFLOWER SEEDS WOODCUT SILKSCREEN FACE MASK LIMITED EDITION

Description

You are bidding on a limited edition Ai Weiwei Sunflower Seeds woodcut silk-screened polypropylene face mask. Produced by Ai Weiwei for charity, this mask was made exclusively available for sale on eBay and is sold out. The mask comes inside a semi-transparent envelope to protect the work, and the semi-transparent envelope is enclosed in a lager black envelope, which also includes a signed artist's statement (with a facsimile printed signature). I had to break the seal of the black envelope to take these pictures of the mask you will receive, but I did NOT open the semi-transparent envelope so as not to touch the mask itself. The last image is a stock photo of the mask so you can see the image better.
Please see below for additional details. This item is in hand and will ship to you in a box the day after I receive payment by fully insured priority mail. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to send me a message.
Thanks very much and happy bidding.
