| Timeline of his life (no he is not dead) |
 |
| Took them apart and put them back together without the uses of any nails or screws, and turned it into one piece of amazing art work |
 |
| I had no idea what these things were until i saw everyone looking through the hole in the centre... |
 |
| Turns out you can see all of the moon phases, how freaking awesome is that. Mind is blown. |
 |
| A piece of log from thousands of thousands of years ago, he managed to carve a map of China right in the centre. You see you see????? |

| CRABS |
 |
| So look at this rebel, taking an urn from the era of the king's dynasty and dropping it like "mehh whatever" |
 |
| So these are all urns from the kings dynasty which he dipped and dyed. "Taking something old and turning it into something new" |
 |
| He took the names, age and school of 5000+ children who died during the Sichuan Earthquake |
 |
| Took apart bikes and put them all back together as one. This was so cool |
 |
| Part of his protest art |
 |
| An urn with the coca cola sign |
 |
| A snake made from 500 school bags. I guess it's a tribute of some sort to the children lost in the Sichuan Earthquake |
Great post Sandy. I don't know anything about the artist but his pieces are pretty interesting- although I can see where the controversy come in. I love visiting exhibits like this. Looks like it was really enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteomgosh this exhibit is insane! i love the phases of the moon exhibit that is so neat!! my mind is officially blown too lolol!!
ReplyDeleteI love how you documented the exhibition. It's badass. I'm still wondering what I think of his protest art though, I really don't quite know...
ReplyDeleteWhoa, his work is so intense. I like the bicycle one a lot, but my favorite is the moon phase piece. I've never heard of him before, but I'll have to check out more of his work. (:
ReplyDeleteWow cool!!!! I always like to visit these things but I never really do so on my own. Thanks for sharing :)

ReplyDeleteThis is pretty cool!! I haven't been to a museum in a long time. It would be a great date.
ReplyDeleteWow, I love this post. It looks like the two of you had a great time. I was born and raised in Vancouver and I haven't even been to either of those two cities!
