Mircea Nicolae, ‘Glass globes’ (2008)

Brick fragments from 25 demolished houses, shaped with an electric power tool, and then placed inside 25 glass globes found in a deserted glass factory. The project questions the destruction of private houses built at the end of the XIXth century and in the first part of the XXth century in the central area of Bucharest, Romania. Currently, these buildings are being demolished and replaced with blocks of flats or business headquarters, thus evicting an important segment of the built memory of the city.

Ant Farm

Cadillac Ranch‘ (1974) by Ant Farm.

Cadillac Ranch was installed near Amarillo, Texas, on Route 66. It consists of 10 Cadillac automobiles, representing a number of evolutions of the car line (most notably the birth and death of the defining feature of mid twentieth century Cadillacs; the tailfin) from 1949 to 1963, half-buried nose-first in the ground, at an angle corresponding to that of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
