Six large inflatable works–from a roast suckling pig to a pile of poo–have taken over the West Kowloon Cultural District ( (WKDC) park (which covers 17 hectares of landscaped space) on Hong Kong’s waterfront, transforming the site into a (con)temporary sculpture park, as part of an exhibition curated by M+, the New Museum for Visual Culture at the WKDC.

Mobile M+: Infalation!’ (which runs until june 9th, 2013) features pieces by international artists Cao Fei (China); Choi Jeong Hwa (South Korea); Jeremy Deller (UK); Jiakun Architects / Liu Jiakun(China); Paul McCarthy (USA); and Tam Wai Ping (Hong Kong); accompanied by a performance piece by Tomás Saraceno (Argentina), all of which raise questions about the nature of public art and how audiences can engage with it on a number of different levels.

The exhibition is the second in the ‘nomadic’ series (that goes by the name mobile M+) of shows curated by M+ in which the cultural institution
explores the different means of attracting the general community, through the realization of projects which would not have been possible within a single,
museum building.
