'Emergency Exit' may be one of the most fun and thought-provoking art installations I have ever seen. This installation is located inside the Polish Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale. Visitors launch themselves off of a mass of bird cages into artificial clouds.
If you've ever wanted a safe way to jump off of a high-rise or skyscraper, 'Emergency Exit' will satisfy your craving. Created by Agnieszka Kurant and Aleksandra Wasilkowska, this installation will definitely make you think.
