Cai Guo-Qiang - Snow Lotus No. 1, by Arty on Feb 9, 2024 12:18:54 GMT 1, New edition of Cai Guo-Qiang.I like his approach with powder and firework. Maybe the boy in me awake when there's powder involved 
What is your opinion about the drop?

Cai Guo-Qiang - Snow Lotus No. 1, by from mjolnir on Feb 9, 2024 12:47:12 GMT 1, I get the impression that this is a print that would like 100x better in real life than in photos. I find it strange that there's no product video on the AA website, just a really brief glimpse at 5min into the artist video on the site ...

Cai Guo-Qiang - Snow Lotus No. 1, by its all about me on Feb 9, 2024 13:41:02 GMT 1, Positives: Print run of just 50. Comes already framed.
Negatives: Expensive. The framing looks a bit 'cheap' to me.

Cai Guo-Qiang - Snow Lotus No. 1, by from mjolnir on Feb 9, 2024 15:05:09 GMT 1, I get the impression that it's two printed sheets - one printed mirror dibond and one printed clear acrylic or something, so I think it would have a cool depth to it

Edit: I've just realised, if English isn't your first language, my posts must sound and read a lot like LRoy's at times.

Cai Guo-Qiang - Snow Lotus No. 1, by Arty on Feb 9, 2024 19:07:15 GMT 1, No real powder on this one but I am going for it. I think in person it's stunning and a great one at my wall. The price is relative high but I prefer this above one of those timed editions which flood the market.

Cai Guo-Qiang - Snow Lotus No. 1, by mack on Feb 9, 2024 21:46:20 GMT 1, Anyone know why heโs releasing his editions in Europe? I mean, he isnโt exiled like Weiwei. Doesnโt he have a huge following in China?
Anyway, I would definitely hang it on my wall.

Cai Guo-Qiang - Snow Lotus No. 1, by Ace on Feb 18, 2024 21:54:05 GMT 1, Great opportunity for adding one of his works in the collection!
Looking at the video of the medium used and the precess taken, this edition should be stunning by looking at it life.
Also the idea and significance behind it it makes different edition from the previous - not that there are many edition in the market..
