This instillation by Ai Weiwei is know as Fountain of Light. Weiwei created this piece in 2007. This chandelier is almost 23 feet tall. This piece was a miniature version of Tatlin's Tower, but to poke fun at the fragility of the monument he made it out of glass and stainless steel. I personally love where the piece is placed in this picture. I feel the building it is in seems almost run down and dirty, yet it holds such a beautiful piece. The architecture of the piece is intriguing to me as well, how it curves and leans is appealing to the eye I feel.
