http://www.vernissage.tv | The main protagonist in this video is a palm tree with a very special talent or misbehavior. It has been planted among its conventional fellows by Brazilian artist Ana Linnemann in Lummus Park in Miami Beach as part of Art Basel Miami Beach’s Art Projects.
To the surprise of the amazed passersby, the palm tree, spins for 30 seconds and then stays still for two minutes. “That’s funny!”, on of the spectators calls out, and the piece is certainly one of the most popular art works during Art Basel Miami Beach. But there’s more behind it.
