Here’s a sneak peek of Chris Burden’s last completed work, “Ode to Santos Dumont,” which will be on view to the public starting Monday, May 18. The kinetic airship sculpture—inspired by Brazilian-born pioneer aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, widely considered the father of aviation in France—achieves indoor flight for 15-minute intervals throughout the day (performance times are listed on our website). #lacma #ChrisBurden
LACMA Members can attend a preview day tomorrow!
