Daily Pic: Gabriel Orozco’s “La DS,” one of Citroen’s masterpieces with its middle third excised. Is it a desecration of the original, or a concentration of its powers? Or is it Orozco’s attempt to share – or steal – the aura of a great design object, by transferring it into the space of art? How could an artist not want to use a DS as an art supply?
The anxiety of influence: Titian and Giorgione; Warhol and Leonardo; Orozco and Flaminio Bertoni. (Yes, the greatest of French cars was designed by an Italian.)
