Jean Tinguely - Homage to New York (1960)

Jean Tinguely was asked in 1960 to produce a work to be performed in the Sculpture Garden of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In collaboration with other artists/engineers, among them Billy Klüver and Robert Rauschenberg, he produced a self-destroying mechanism that performed for 27 minutes during a public performance for invited guests. In the end, the public browsed the remnants of the machine for souvenirs to take home.

Michelle Segre - The Collector (2012)

This sculpture/assemblage somehow reminds me of Daniel’s Paper Plate Genocide from the Daria movie Is it Fall Yet?.

No offense.
