If you ever stood before a clumsy sculpture and thought, “I wish I could only take a small part of that home,” MSCHF satisfies you. Brooklyn-based collective – the most well-known ATM in Basel Miami Beach, which brings Art Fair fans to each other, sells Damien Hirst Hirst Hirst Mathing One Dot at one time and the big red boots of the virus in 2023 – King Solomon’s childrenThis is a sculpture that has been dismembered.
The project, known as the “Financial Trust Fall,” invited early collectors to be surprised, hoping that others could follow suit with a clever self-aware reverse pyramid scheme. Sales live on Kingsolomonsbaby.com on Thursday at 2pm, just in time for the opening night of Pioneer Works from 7-9pm.
The baby itself costs $100,000. Two buyers mean $50,000 each, and so on until 1,000 people are interested, in which case the child allocates 1,000 times for a price of $100 per piece. I think this is a firm goodbye to Brooklyn dollar films.
The show is in the same location from noon to 6pm in public view on Friday and Saturday (July 11-12). What you will find: a large sculpture destined to be dismantled. It was said to have been cut with a hotline jig, sold and distributed into thin slices until it once stood up as a “monumental” work to become a thousand wall paintings that could be used. The fully deconstructed sculpture will unfold on July 13.
Each reading, the sculpture turns Aura into an asset, wonder into a business, and collective memory into flat siding decorations. Interested people can’t even choose which piece of the big baby you get – depending on the website, each buyer will randomly put polystyrene foam and painted food pie.
Can’t you go to Brooklyn? That’s the point. The project’s manifesto says: “The number of those who see the gel protein rabbit as a photo online makes the number of those who have seen it personally equate to the order of magnitude.”
It added: “The camera is the blade that cuts the thinnest slice.”
