Amazing Curators of the World is a series of custom made bobblehead dolls of some of the world’s renown curators and museum directors. These include Adam Weinberg, Roselee Goldberg, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Beatrix Ruf, Okwui Enwezor, and Hou Hanru. Hou Hanru’s image is hidden here in order to protect his identity because he has threatened legal action against Mr Burns. If you have purchased a Hou Hanru bobblehead doll please contact Mr Burns for a kit to help cover Mr Hou Hanru’s head with a miniature paper bag.
