Chinese artist Li Wei from Beijing has been gaining a lot of attention for his performance series ‘Falls.’ His work is a mixture of performance art and photography that creates illusions of a sometimes dangerous reality. Li Wei states that these images are not computer montages and works with the help of props such as mirror, metal wires, scaffolding and acrobatics.

BERN, Switzerland—Paul McCarthy’s Complex Shit, a giant inflatable dog turd, escaped its moorings at the Zentrum Paul Klee Art Museum this week, bringing down a power line and breaking a window before landing on the grounds of a children’s home 200 meters away, theGuardian reports.
The McCarthy piece, which is reportedly the size of a house, is part of the exhibition “East of Eden: A Garden Show,” which runs through October 26. According to Juri Steiner, the director of the Klee center, the museum was not yet sure if the work would go back on display.
