Have you heard about the the toweringly celestial ambition?
See the Chinese contemporary artist Cai Guo-Qiang's sky ladder, a project over 20 years in the making. His jaw-dropping pyrotechnic concept involves a double-stranded firework connective wire suspended from a hot air balloon at night - with horizontal wires linking like rungs: when the blue touch paper is lit, a fiery spirit ladder appears to ascend infinitely into the darkness, wrote Peter Bradshaw in The Quardian.
Yes!
The background of Sky Ladder comes from here:
Trace the rise of contemporary artist Cai Guo-Qiang from childhood in Mao's China to global art world superstar, and join his quest to realize his lifelong obsession
Perhaps, that is a moment, transient and transcendental, like so many of Cai’s site-specific concepts, and like the Apollo spaceshots,
Few of his his pyro happenings are more interesting than the Sky Ladder directed by Kevin Macdonald.
I would have liked to see also such as The e airborne fighting dogs in Head On, which is extraordinary.
