Coming up at the end of the year at the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane, explosive Chinese artist Cai Guo-Qiang will be presenting his new exhibition – Falling Back To Earth. Commissioned specifically for this museum showing will be a new sculptural piece entitled Heritage 2013 featuring 99 animals from around the world gathering at a watering hole, reflecting on his thoughts about nature and globalization. Along with this centerpiece, other new works inspired by Cai’s time in Australia will accompany Head On, his famous stream of life-sized wolves leaping through the air and crashing into a glass wall. This show marks a renewed focus on the Earth after a recent exhibition in Los Angeles (covered) featuring his fascination with the otherworldly (i.e.: aliens).
