One of China's foremost artists, Cai Guo-Qiang presents whimsical inventions and machines created by farmers and China's rural poor. Humble and with incredibly lofty aspirations, the inventions are crude and simple, the product of individual stubbornness and focus. The peasant da Vincis stand at a critical point in history, a massive platform on which they play.
