jim as in me found something 4 the bird horror lovers,

Kader Attia, "flying Rats", 2005 instillation view
Parkett p 191-3.
The French artist Attia exhibited this instillation at the Lyon Biennial last year. The theme being "Experiencing duration". He created a huge birdcage filling it with 150 pigeons and a load of little children made from bird seed and moose. not sure if thats the product or the animal? anyway the pigeons or flying rats devour the children bird seed by bird seed creating a very disturbing spectacle. its very natural and very un natural at the same time. over the duration of the exhibition the pigeons adapted to the space, eating, sleeping, shitting and probably mating and the rest very effectively tackling the theme "experiencing duration". I think pigeons will suffer a bad rep at the fault of Attia but they say good art changes the way u look at things.
