Vancouver International Sculpture Biennale

Vancouver Biennale exhibits are distributed in beaches and parks. For example, Paradise has many gates in Vanier Park. Slippers can be visited inside. Here, along English Bay, there are several different styles of artwork.

The term Biennale, which is derived from Italian, refers to a biennial art exhibition. The Vancouver Biennale exhibits a series of laughing bronze sculptures from English Bay and used cars on a pile near Science World. On Granville Island, six large cement cans were transformed into vivid giant dolls and one of the exhibits.

Where it's more interesting, it's a good trip to be here.

This artwork is a legacy of the 2009-2011 Vancouver Biennale exhibition. The artist, Yue Minjun, is a leading figure of Cynical Realism, a contemporary Chinese artistic movement that emerged in response to the 1989 demonstrations in Tiananmen Square. Yu Minjun uses humour, cynicism, repetition, and an emphasis on the individual to engage viewers and create dialogue.The sculpture was originally conceived as a linear installation and exhibited at the Beijing Museum of Contemporary Art. The Vancouve Biennale provided the artist the opportunity to reinterpret the work for its new site in English Bay. In his reimagining, Yue Minjun reordered the figures to create a maze, and titled the work: A-maze-ing Laughter.
