About

Empty Chair for Liu Xiaobo refers to a vacant seat placed on the podium for imprisoned Chinese writer and dissident Liu Xiaobo during the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize ceremony held in Oslo, Norway. The image of the empty chair quickly became a symbol of protest against the Chinese government's political oppression and spawned a photo fad on the Chinese microblogging site Weibo.
