“NO LAB in RMB City”
Cao Fei (SL: China Tracy) + MAP OFFICE (Gutierrez + Portefaix)
At Prospect.1 New Orleans
November 1, 2008-January 9, 2009 (Preview days: October 30 & 31)
Opening November 1 as part of the new Prospect.1 New Orleans art biennale, "NO LAB in RMB City" is a stark, surreal vision of New Orleans in Second Life. A special collaboration between Cao Fei (SL: China Tracy) and MAP OFFICE (Gutierrez + Portefaix), NO LAB is a striking black-and-white space that investigates the landscape (physical, cultural, historic) of post-Katrina New Orleans. Come visit and see the waters rise... And fall... And rise again.
