Appreciation towards Public Art Fund for providing the following description:

纽约街头的建筑，交通站，广告牌和公共建筑上，展示了一些列由艾未未设计的装置艺术。这一系列作品回应了当下全球化移民难民问题，讽刺了一系列政治因素导致的社会现实。“好篱笆才有好邻家”是一句美式俗语，它来自罗伯特·弗洛斯特的作品《修墙》。这句话引发了对边界墙的反思。艾未未用反讽的手法和敏锐的感觉来回应，民粹主义的概念如何引起恐惧和偏见。该展览展示了“好的围墙”不是不可逾越的障碍，而是内部结构和权利的无限扩张。

Ai Weiwei conceived this multi-site, multi-media exhibition for public spaces, monuments, buildings, transportation sites, and advertising platforms throughout New York City. Collectively, these elements comprise a passionate response to the global migration crisis and a reflection on the profound social and political impulse to divide people from each other. “Good fences make good neighbors” is a folksy proverb cited in American poet Robert Frost’s Mending Wall, where the need for a boundary wall is being questioned. Ai chose this title with an ironic smile and a keen sense of how populist notions often stir up fear and prejudice. Visitors to the exhibition will discover that Ai’s “good fences” are not impenetrable barriers but powerful, immersive, and resonant additions to the fabric of the city.
