Day 4: MONA (PHAROS)

Day 4: MONA (PHAROS)

Friday, 4 May 2018 at 2:00:57 pm AEST
PHAROS is the new wing of MONA, and built to evoke the ancient lighthouse of Alexandria.

PHAROS is less of a museum and more a theme park of ideas and installations.

Some of the things I liked here include

  • 20:50 (Richard Wilson) – basically a chamber filled with motor oil
  • Memorial to the Sacred Wind, or the Tomb of a Kamikaze (Jean Tinguely)
  • Beside Myself (James Turrell)
  • Event Horizon (James Turrell)
  • Grotto (Randy Polumbo)
  • Lincoln (Nam Jun Park)
