[Yasmin_discussions] names of censored contemporary living visual artists

Dear Yasminers,

I am doing an augmented reality artwork on censored artists, to be shown
at the Manifest.AR uninvited augmented reality intervention at the
Venice Biennial.

As the Venice Biennial is about contemporary visual arts I am focusing
on contemporary, living visual artists.

Of course the most recent, widely publicized example is Ai Weiwei, and
the list can be incredibly long - I will have to make a small selection
of around 10. I am curious to query the Yasmin list for your viewpoint,
and will be querying Faces as well (apologies for cross-posting!)

What would be your "top ten"?

take care, Tamiko
