The most dramatic Art Projects public art piece at the 2008 Art Basel Miami Beach could be found on Watson Island (888 MacArthur Causeway) where leading Chinese artist Ai Weiwei installed 100 glistening ceramic blue bubbles across a 600 sq. m area (Bubble, 2008). The work took two years to create. “Porcelain is always thought of as a craft material,” Ai Weiwei told The Art Newspaper, “but this work gives it a new, contemporary vocabulary. It can survive in any condition—as long as nobody puts a hammer to it!”
