| hand painted sunflower seeds |
Sunday we visited
Tate Modern for the first time and here is one of the coolest things we spotted:
 |
| Sunflower seed exhibit by artist Ai Weiwei ~ once upon a time you could walk through and sit down in these porcelain hand painted sunflower seeds, but they quickly found out that they contained toxic dust... so now you can only see the sees from a far... you may have seen this on CCN... | | | | |
 |
| Over 100 million sunflower seed replicas are down there... All hand painted. |
Some other things we spotted at
Tate Modern:
 |
| Monet: Water Lillies |
|
|
 |
| Jackson Pollock |
 |
| Andy Warhol |
 |
| Picasso: Three Dancers |
 |
| and some random neon art... AMERICA |
We tried to have a drink at the bar on the 7th floor to enjoy the fantastic views from there, but it was too packed so we left...
Cheers,
WMMc
Looks like you can buy a sack of the seeds for a mere 120,000 at the Sotheby's auction! You can sit on the toxic seeds in your very own home!
