"Onlookers Mistake Fallen Construction Crane at Dallas Museum of Art as an Art Installation"

"Last week a large truck-mounted construction crane abruptly tipped over during the erection of a party tent at the Dallas Museum of Art. The crane’s boom fell on the museum’s facade, causing minor damage and propping the crane at an alarming angle. According to CBS Dallas/Fort Worth, many onlookers mistook the sight of the upended crane for a new art installation."

Just to clarify: the thing with the red girders is Art, and the thing with all the wheels is not. The five people on Segways wearing bicycle helmets are a performance-art piece entitled "Please Slap Me."

Tourists should be taking pictures that look like they're holding it up overhead.

are those real people on the standup driver machines - or are they part of the exhibit too?
