Death Balloon
August 16, 2009 by jotyskWent to see art work urging the public to “think about death” during the annual Culture Festival in Stockholm, and fell for this piece by Adel Abidin, an Iraqi-Finnish artist.
The video shows a young boy in barber shop training, gently shaving white foam off of a balloon ready to burst at any moment… and suddenly bursting. I yelled out loud

Highlight 2: the restroom!! See THIS is what a rest room is supposed to look like in an art museum

Moderna x1

As seen on a wall at Moderna Museet (the major museum in Stockholm for contemporary art): “Beware of taking the spectator’s unfruitful stand, because life is not a spectacle, a sea of misery is not a viewbox (not sure about the translation here
