【新唐人2011年2月23日讯】中国知名艺术家艾未未，与多名支持者一起，赶赴2010年度“艺术权力榜”颁奖典礼现场，赠送主办单位“新浪作弊无耻”等多面锦旗，对新浪暗箱操作评选抗议。
《新浪网》中国网站1月26号推出“新浪艺术权力榜”评选活动，知名艺术家艾未未，以压倒性的优势列网友投票的第一名，但27号，这项评选的整个投票页面却消失了。
新浪“艺术权力”评选页面这个月（2月）15号突然“复活”，在“年度艺术人物”中，艾未未的名字却彻底消失。但新浪并没有意识到，在另外一个评选细项“年度艺术机构” 中，“三影堂”作为入选艺术机构，“三影堂”的顾问正是景观建筑设计师艾未未。
隔天16号，中国网友纷纷上网投票“三影堂”，“三影堂”得票5000多，位居榜首。
当天晚上8点，主办方《新浪网》人为将原本第二名的“嘉德”艺术品拍卖公司的3400多票改为5000多票，“三影堂”的5000多票改为4500多票，修改动作被多名网友截屏留作证据。
17号，多名中国网友就更改票数事由，致电《新浪网》质询，但《新浪网》拒绝透露详情。
2月21号，在这项活动的颁奖现场，艾未未及支持者赶赴现场，向主办方赠送多面旗子，上头写着“新浪作弊无耻”、“你们把我弄哪儿去了”等。
中国知名的音乐人“左小诅咒”：“整个过程是滑稽的，也很幽默。大冬天，很多人排队跟艾老师合影，因为后面一面锦旗写着新浪可耻。”
而艾未未认为，很多所谓的艺术家，依附权力，做了那么多不好的事，仍然想冠冕堂皇的争得这些荣誉，就会想到世界上为什么很多国家，正在通过抗争让这些人下来。
艾未未：“实际上中国是没有什么所谓的真正的当代艺术，因为这个所谓的当代艺术跟社会实际、社会的这种公开程度是有着紧密联系的。当一个国家完全的对这一切进行封锁和压制的时候，实际上是不可能有真正的这么一个平台的。”
2月19号，新浪公布了即将进行颁奖的消息，艾未未网上公开征集网友的看法，多名网友认为新浪作为公开的网络媒体，在评选活动中，暗箱操作，有违公正，而新浪网趋向中宣部门，进行自宫，会失去一个媒体的公信力。
“左小诅咒”表示，艺术应该更加娱乐化、成为每个人都能参与的事情。每个人都能参与，就会建立公开公正的规则。他认为，在这个事情中，新浪媒体也有难言的苦衷，因为他们受到主管宣传部门的管制。

Well-known Chinese artist Ai Weiwei and supporters
rushed to the 2010 “Art Power List" ceremony site,
to present the organizers with many silk banners
with “Sina’s Shameless Cheating" on them
to protest against Sina’s black-box selection.
Sina.com launched “Art Power List" contest
on Jan. 26.
Ai Weiwei received an overwhelming amount of votes.
However, one day later, on Jan. 27,
the webpage displaying the voting results disappeared.
The webpage suddenly resurfaced on Feb. 15.
Within “Artists of the Year" category, however,
Ai Weiwei’s name has completely disappeared.
In the category “Art Institutions of the Year",
Three Shadows Photography Art Center was picked.
Perhaps Sina didn’t realize that Ai Weiwei is
actually the center’s consultant.
The next day, many netizens voted for the center.
With over 5,000 votes, Three Shadows topped the list.
At 8 p.m. on the same day, the organizer Sina.com
changed the votes received by the 1st runner-up
from around 3,400 votes to over 5,000 votes.
Three Shadows’ votes were reduced to 4,500 or so.
Many netizens made screenshots as proof.
On Feb. 17, many called Sina.com to question
about the altered votes,
but Sina.com refused to disclose details.
On Feb. 21, on the award ceremony,
Ai Weiwei and his supporters arrived at the scene,
and presented many banners to the organizers,
with words “Sina’s Shameless Cheating".
Well-known Chinese musician “Little Left Curse":
The whole process is ridiculous and very humorous.
In the cold, people lined up to take photos with Ai,
because the banner at the back said Sina is shameful.
Ai Weiwei said, many so-called artists bow to power.
They have done so many detrimental things.
Yet they still want to obtain the honors.
There are struggles in many countries
to bring such people down.
Ai: In fact, China has no real contemporary art,
because the contemporary art is closely linked to
social realities and the openness of the society.
When a country blocks and oppresses all this,
the platform for arts cannot really exist.
On Feb. 19, Sina.com announced the award ceremony.
Ai openly asked for netizens’ opinions online.
Many netizens found that as an open network media,
Sina.com carried out unfair black-box selections.
Sina.com bowed to the CCP’s Propaganda Bureau
and “self-castrated”. As a media, it lost credibility.
“Little Left Curse" said, art should be more entertaining,
and should allow everyone to participate.
Open and fair rules should be established. He believes
Sina.com may have unspeakable difficulties, because
they are monitored by the Propaganda Bureau.
