117CLAUDIA M. REDERI WILL TELL YOU ABOUT THE EXHIBIT OF PORCELAIN SUNFLOWER SEEDS BY AI WEI WEII wIll tell you about the exhIbIt of PorcelaIn Sunflower SeedS by aI weI weI.At first you think they are real seeds, but these are porcelain sunflower seedseach painted by hands that have touched centuries of  pottery in this small town.Their beauty is unexpected,you walk among them, rake them, hold one in your palm, while you considerhow many people held this particular seed, how old the hand that held the paint brush; there is even something mysterious about the fact that the seeds were found to release a toxin so that the museum goers were no longer allowed to play among them, but only to stand behind a rope and gaze at them.Art is dangerous, after all.

I will tell you about the exhibit of Porcelain Sunflower Seeds by Ai Wei Wei.
