10. Felix Gonzalez-Torres’ Untitled (Portrait of Ross). An interesting metaphor for the struggle Gonzalez-Torres’ partner had with AIDS, this piece involved visitors by asking them to take a piece of the candy that created the exhibit.

4. Ju Duoqi’s The Raft of the Lotus Roots. Picture yourself on a raft on some lettuce with lotus root people and marmalade skies.

1. Akkiko Ida and Pierre Javelle’s La Coupure. Looks like desert land suffered a devastating eclair-quake.

Well i love the picture number 5.
the watermelon one look a little bit disgusting
these are cool. some people are just really creative and talented.
I saw a pain exhibit in Paris. It was fantastique!. If Tiffany was creating lamps today I bet he would love the illuminated gummy bears
#10 just breaks my heart.
I kind of want the gummy bear chandelier in my house, but I suspect it wouldn’t be around for too long.
Carl Warner should of been number 1.
I had the opportunity to take a piece of candy from Gonzalez-Torres’ Untitled. After hearing the explanation behind the artwork, I didn’t know whether to eat the candy or keep it, and chose to give it away to someone else. It looked beautiful, but at the same time it’s so sad…
I love Number 4! Just coming out of an art history class, The Raft of the Medusa is very dear to me.
10 and 2 are my favorite.
ooooooo!!!! i love #8 #5 and #2!
Why does Queen Elizabeth II look like Claire Danes?
