Bourbon & Pearls

Ai Weiwei’s incredible art.

Beth Cavener Stichter’s amazing ceramic pieces! Huge, hollowed artworks created from clay over months and months of time. You can literally see where her hands have pushed the clay. These are psychological portraits of the human condition… touching and visceral.

Artist Cai Guo-Qiang has created some of the most interesting contemporary art… His installations reference various concepts of power, culture, and history in ingenious ways. Check him out.

Unbelievable installations from Brazilian artist Henrique Oliviera. Each of these massive works is made from eco-friendly, found plywood. Some are painted, but all of the weathered looks remain. I’d die to see these!

Polypropylene pipes and nylon cords create this installation masterpiece by Tom Price, which references the DC cherry trees and society’s attitude towards plastics.
