You've got to respect Red Bull for all of the creative, interesting, and wing’d things that they do besides just making lightly-carbonated energy drinks that will always and forever be associated with our hangovers. But for all the air races, wacky go carts, and wacky air-cartswe’ve seen carried out in their name, we never expected….an art exhibit? Here’s what they say it’s all about:

​

“The Red Bull Art of Can is a nationwide hunt for creativity ans is open to everyone, from fulltime artists to simply those with a  creative flare. Build, sculpt, weld, glue, hammer, bend, fold, print, tape and paint, whatever!

Be bold! Send a message! Make a Statement. Your primary material must be a Red bull can bus you will need to add plenty of imagination and creativity. Make a sculpture, a picture, a 3-D model, a mobile, a video or a piece of modern art, but make it beautiful, colorful, clever, amusing or outrageous.”
