Ai Weiwei at Tate

An amazing installation of Ai Weiwei at Tate:

These pictures are of the Tate gallery’s floor, over a thousand square meters of handmade replica’s of sunflower seeds. Read more about it here

The whole process however does remind me of this song by Einsturzende Neubauten.

Patrick Bernatchez

I’ve been watching the short films by Patrick Bernatchez this morning. They’re disturbing and haunting images, capturing in a few minutes human misery, despair and loneliness like suspense movies. “Empereur” from the series Crysalide has a Ronald McDonald sitting in a car slowly filling with water. The music of God Speed You Black Emperor works perfectly with the dark images.

The exhibition is held at Gallery West in The Hague.
