A woman sits in a cell and listens to a recording of Nigerian Fela Kuti that is part of the installation called Stay Tuned during a preview of the art exhibit @Large: Ai Weiwei on Alcatraz Island Wednesday, Sept. 24, 2014, in San Francisco. Revealing unexpected perspectives on Alcatraz and its layered legacy, the exhibit by the Beijing-based artist prompts visitors to consider the implications of incarceration and the possibilities of art as an act of conscience. The exhibit opens Friday and runs through April. Stay Tuned invites visitors into 12 individual cells in A Block, where they can sit and listen to spoken words, poetry and music by people who have been imprisoned for the creative expression of their beliefs.
