Wacky: L.A. Museum Installs Real Swimming Pool in Gallery | Co.Design

Excerpt from Suzanne Labarre's article:

"The pool is the work of late Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica and filmmaker Neville D'Almeida -- for an exhibit on, well, the canonical works of Latin-American artists who explore themes of light and space. How a live pool fits in, per MOCA’s press department: “The water presents a dynamic surface where the movements of the swimming participants are integrated into the work in a complete reinvention of art as an immersive, sensorial, and interactive experience.”
