and life goes on … very interesting and very expensive exhibition, considering it was 2 rooms and 1500 yen! Wolves are stuffed (not very sympathetically) and caught in amazing poses. I just wondered how they managed to get the wolves in that particular position via rigor mortis. It is like a photo captured in real life 3D. About 4 assistants hanging around so absolutely no chance of a sneaky photo and I was too ashamed to do my dumbass routine. Though I did ‘manage’ to brush into one of the wolves (on purpose) to feel what the fur was like. Not nice – very brittle and hard. The Japanese are very fierce if you try to interact with art exhibits.
The other two photos are made with gunpowder – Cai Guo Qiang wanted to use one of the 4 great Chinese inventions – gunpowder, papermaking, printing, compass. Oh – what would we do without the Chinese today!!! Not a lot …
