Ai Weiwei's cat-mouflage takeover of New York City park

Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei has unveiled a public art installation titled *Camouflage* at the Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms State Park on Roosevelt Island, New York City. The installation, which opened on September 10, 2025, drapes the park's memorial to President Roosevelt in fabric patterned with cat silhouettes, reinterpreting military camouflage patterns. It coincides with the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly, located across the East River. The work marks the launch of Art X Freedom, a new annual public art commissioning program by the Four Freedoms Park Conservancy, aimed at sparking dialogue around social justice. Inside the tent-like structure, LED lights display a Ukrainian proverb, and visitors can attach messages to the netting in collaboration with the artist-run organization For Freedoms.
