No Spectators: The Art of Burning ManExperience Black Rock Desert in Washington D.C.

Each year 75,000 people travel to Black Rock Desert in Nevada to take part in the thriving temporary metropolis known as Burning Man. It is a hotbed of artistic ingenuity, driving innovation through its principles of radical self-expression, decommodification, communal participation, and reverence for the handmade. Taking it’s title from a long-standing saying on the “Playa” that encourages participation, No Spectators: The Art of Burning Man is the largest exhibition the museum has ever put on. It brings the large-scale, participatory work from this desert gathering to a broader public.
