Home of Josh Sands-Artist. Busy sifting through the world of art that inspires me, and posting my own.
Now on view: “Chris Burden: Extreme Measures”
Made out of five thousand toys, sand, plants, and boulders, and weighing approximately 53,000 lbs, A Tale of Two Cities (1981) is a particularly remarkable example of Burden’s large-scale tableaux, taking child’s play and war games to another level of complexity, obsession, and absurdity.
