description/
The desert is no place for a baby, but what about a man dressed as a baby? Come to the SculptureCenter and see Nevada's Black Rock Desert (site of the incendiary Burning Man festival) as experienced by Baby Ikki, a character that artist Michael Smith has portrayed for more than 30 years. Painstakingly edited by Smith and artist Mike Kelley, the two-and-a-half hour travelogue of Baby Ikki, displayed as a six-channel video, is a fantastic voyage.
