Contemporary Sculpture in Beijing

Started going through my pictures from the trip. Here are some I wanted to share from our time in Beijing, the 798 Arts District to be exact. I want to blog more about this place and the fact that there's a great contemporary art scene in Beijing, China at all, but first here are some cool sculptures. I like how it at once pulls from traditional themes and comic book styling (Jim Lee-esque?) .

Save the Great White... Coat

I noticed that it still looked a little dirty after taking it to get dry cleaned.

I googled "how to clean white wool coat."

Following a path of pages, I found my answer: preemption. With Scotchguard! Pow!
