THE BIG GOLDEN FARTING BULL

A sculpture for the wild books. This bodacious creation was birthed from the brain of sculptor Chen Wenling. His works include nothing less than weird, wild, and wicked! This particular sculpture is called “What You See Might Not Be Real” and is part of a new exhibition at Joy Art Gallery called “Emergency Escape.” Generally his exhibitions include a bunch of characters that sit inside a single theme (like pigs, or monotone Red people), so this is a fabulous departure of style and a crashing crank to subject matter. Discover for yourself the hugeness of this farting bull, and discover the celebrity devil he’s destroying.

The big fart! “放屁“ (fang pi) in Chinese literally means to fart but in slang it means to bluff or lie.
Chen Wenling’s previous exhibition was called “God of Materialism” at the Asia Art Center - logical transition to the subject matter here, yes? The bull is the economy, the man being smashed? Bernie Madoff. What a lovely composition!
Made of fiberglass, various paints, 20+ feet tall.

Hey Yeezy - I know I'm getting annoying by spamming your site, but I refuse to put this out without having you involved. It would be doing you a disservice. This is also a good opportunity to focus your attention on an interview that has musical relevance.
I've been trying to reach you via Gabriel in regards to a ten minute interview whenever you are in NYC. It's for a documentary entitled, "The Electro Wars". A lot of credible artists (A-Trak, LMFAO, Pitbull, Steve Aoki) are on board and they already mention your contribution to the electro scene in the last two years. Primarily your collaboration with Daft Punk. I have no interest in asking you anything personal. Those are not my interests as a filmmaker. My intentions are purely with the subject matter at hand.
If you are interested please contact me:
oneandonlyproductions@yahoo.com
You can view the trailer here:

...with bad gas the bull flinged his fist, unto a bubble shaped man's behind that thought he was the ish. HAaaaaaaaaSigh. That's all I could think of. Other then my silly thought....raw, mind-boggling and detailed.

@theoneandonlysav: ....Nothing wrong with being consistant in our efforts (consistany shows determination and a hardworker ), BUT when the redundancy of doing it, isn't working and/or on top of that getting the job done?.....its time to hang that idea up, or go in another direction with it. Have a nice day hun.

This is really bad, but understand the creation behind it..in (what you see may not be real). Tuesdai, I know you mentioned I needed to stop asking so many questions..but are you a school teacher? It's cool if you are..have several aunts who are..just noticed you say "hun" a lot? Either way, you are a cool person, with a really cool name.

Have to go..lunch. One more question though? I have learned that Kanye has really helped and inspired a lot of artists to jump-start their success..think this is really inspirational. Hope he gets through what he needs to..he's so talented. If I were him..I wouldn't read any of the headlines. D Jeter gave that advice to Sanchez (the quarterback) and Sanchez has done great this year. If it's not President Obama or Letterman this week..it will be someone else next week. Anyway, know his next tour will be a huge success.

Tropical, no I'm not a teacher, but an collage artist/denim designer. Not close to any Aunts tho I just like using the word hun..... :) Enjoy lunch.
