Ai WeiWei

Ai Weiwei's "Bang" consists of 886 ancient stools, all sprung around a room, as if an explosion had just gone off. This is consistent with Ai Weiwei's typical way of using prized Chinese objects and turning them into a different type of art. This piece was made in 2013 and was displayed in

Venice Biennale along side 3 of his other pieces. The total structure takes up an entire room, and is visible from 360 degrees. This is part of several different sculptures Ai Weiwei had made with the ancient stools.
