An Exhibition Like No Other

By

Some photos from the Cai Guo-Qiang launch party at the Guggenheim:

Cai Car Four.jpg

One of the six Chevrolet cars suspended from the Guggenheim’s ceiling as part of Inopportune: Stage One.

Cai Boat One.jpg

A boat ride in a museum? Overhead sights during a cruise through An Arbitrary History: River include suspended bodies, live birds and snakes.

As you climb the rotunda, Cai’s work Inopportune: Stage One looks even more surreal. The wolves in the background are great too.

There’s a lot more. The exhibition runs through May 28. Definitely worth checking out.
