This was hilarious - aging 'world leaders' in motorized wheelchairs, bumping into walls! Find out more below...
This was hilarious! These were supposed to be aging world leaders in motorized wheelchairs moving around and bumping into walls. Visitors could walk around the OAPs and staff had to stop them getting stuck in corners.
From The Saatchi Gallery website:
Sun Yuan and Peng Yu are two of China's most controversial artists, renown for working with extreme materials such as human fat tissue, live animals, and baby cadavers to deal with issues of perception, death, and the human condition. In Old Person's Home Sun & Peng present a shocking scene of an even more grotesque kind. Hilariously wicked, their satirical models of decrepit OAPS look suspiciously familiar to world leaders, long crippled and impotent, left to battle it out in true geriatric style. Placed in electric wheelchairs, the withered, toothless, senile, and drooling, are set on a collision course for harmless 'skirmish' as they roll about the gallery at snail's pace, crashing into each other at random in a grizzly parody of the U.N.dead.
