WHAT ’ S HE R E ! ™ co n c i e r g e co n n e c t i o n
Thru June 10
Chris Burden:
A Tale of Two Cities
This exhibit was inspired by the
artist’s fascination with war toys,
bullets, model buildings, antique soldiers, and a fantasy about the 25th
century—a time when he imagines
the world will have returned to a
system of feudal states.
The miniature reconstruction of
two such city-states, poised for war,
incorporates 5,000 war toys from the
U.S., Japan, and Europe—on a 1,100
square foot sand base surrounded by
a “jungle” made of houseplants.
Thru June 17
