Ai Wei Wei jar destroyed at Perez Art a Museum Miami, by sin on Feb 16, 2014 23:25:16 GMT 1, I was there. Was one gallery over when it happened. Have a picture of the broken jar I'll post shortly. Word from a security person is that the guy who did it was trying to reenact the photograph behind the installation which showed the artist breaking one of the jars. A pretty stunning weekend in Miami.

Is there no end to Wei Wei's gimmickry?
