I saw this show at the Guggenheim & it was amazing – now I know I
intern there, but this one by
Cai Guo Qiang called “I believe” is amazing. I want you all to go -
it’ll blow your mind! [Also for those of you with the babies - it's a
kid friendly show - no naked biker chicks on the backs of the
boyfriends bike a.k.a the previous show ]
Highlights
1. 9 cars suspended from the ceiling in a free fall with lights coming
out simulating a car bomb
2. Manmade river with a raft boat that adults can get into and push
themselves down the stream [seriously!!!!]
3. A pack of wolves running along the rotunda that eventually take off
(you can walk with the pack)
4. Live artists sculpting life size sculptures from an earlier
imperialist period – sculptures only meant to last for duration of
show
5. Fireworks & gun powder
