Somehow I Found This So Touching (Shanghai Expo Dept)
At the Czech pavilion at the Shanghai World Expo this week.
Meta-theme: Shanghai Expo of 2010, whose most devoted attendees appear to be small-town and rural Chinese folk, serving the same role the St. Louis World's Fair did for Midwestern Americans a century ago -- giving them a glimpse of what the wide world might look like, since they are not likely ever to see it themselves. Strangely uplifting.
