Chris Burden has done all sorts of crazy performance art, most of it more controversial than good. But at the excellent Los Angeles County Museum of Art, he's installed a frenetic Hot Wheels track featuring 1100 cars across 18 lanes. It is mesmerizing and very loud. "Metropolis II" requires an operator present when running; Mr. Burden employs engineers for this task rather than maintaining it himself.
