Don’t miss the final chance to see Ai Weiwei’s striking exhibition of gold zodiac heads on view at Paul Kasmin Gallery’s new West 27^th Street space (formerly the Bungalow 8 nightclub) through Friday, December 23. Set in a sleek, 2500-square-foot, sky-lit gallery, designed by architect Markus Dochantschi of studioMDA, the 12 golden sculptures of the Chinese zodiac animals re-interpret the symbolic figures that encircled a water-clock fountain at the 19^th century Chinese imperial retreat Yuanming Yuan, the Garden of Perfect Brightness, which was looted and destroyed by British troops during the Second Opium War.
