Installing Cai Guo-Qiang’s “Inopportune: State One” (2004) at the Guggenheim Museum. This work formed of suspended white sedans and multichannel light tubes simulates an exploding car bomb spiralling upward from the rotunda floor. It exhibits Cai’s interest in feng shui, pyrotechnic science, cosmological science, and ancient Chinese myth.

Installation sculpture by artist Cai Guo-Qiang. These are sculptures of tigers suspended from the ceiling with countless arrows in them. Possibly referencing human’s destruction of other species as innovations in technology and expansion continue.
