Art, Science, or Amusement Park?

Art gives you an opportunity to express yourself, your thoughts, ideas and how you visualization of things. Different from classic painting and sculptures Carsten Holler’s “Experience” really allows you to engage yourself in his work. I like the idea of the tank that emulates the dead sea exhibition because it brings the dead sea to you, it gives you a glimpse of how the dead sea would be like without having to go there. I personally like how the works are so different from each other, it makes the exhibition interesting. The goggles that give you an upside down view is amazing. The slide from the 4th floor to the 2nd is genius. Compared to classical work such as “Sistine Chapel” or “Bernini’s Ecstasy of Saint Teresa”, Hollers work is completely original. It escapes from paintings and sculptures that have historical backgrounds and brings you a unique modern day experience.
