This is Head On by Cai Guo-Qiang and it’s absolutely breathtaking. It’s been a rather long time since I’ve said ‘wow’ at anything on this orgy called the internet, but his work is seriously wowful and engaging. While watching a clip of Stage One being set up at the Guggenheim, people call him the greatest artist of this decade and all you have to do is look at his work to agree.

i’ve been trying to find better pictures from ‘Head On’ for ages now since I’ll never get to see it in person. Do you have higher-res photos that I could see?

ohh, i just saw this recently! i liked it because you can walk around among the wolves… i like installations you can feel involved in.

honestly, theres really nothing special about this., art is subjective, but this is just dumb.
