A Piece of Concrete Wearing a Stone Mask and a Necktie

Jimmie Durham

1999

Sculpture, 93 x 34 x 18 cm.
Materials: Mixed media

Collection: Private Collection, Amsterdam.

A piece of concrete, standing behind a colourful mask and wearing a flower-printed necktie, remains a piece of concrete. Jimmie Durham plays here with the incongruity of a piece of anonymous material made into a subject with personality by adding to it “human” props but always reminding us, through the use of language, of what we are really looking at.
