The Bruce High Quality Foundation
"Self Portrait (Sometimes That Just Happens)"
18" x 14"
Signed edition of 50 (Signed on Certificate)
2014
What is a self-portrait of an anonymous artist? The Bruce High Quality Foundation, known for their humorous and irreverent projects and performances that often take a subversive and critical stance towards the current market’s seemingly insatiable appetite for hyped new artists, answers this question ad nauseum by insinuating the image cum icon of their namesake, Bruce High Quality, into thousands of images from popular culture and art history. Simultaneously a face and a mask, an insertion into history and a blotting out, the Foundation uses the problematic of its own existence to metonymically reveal the tenuous footholds of truth, history, and humanity. “Self Portrait (Sometimes That Just Happens)” sees Bruce High Quality as a young pop idol, repurposing Michael Jordan’s iconic #23 Bulls jersey, a symbol of aspirant African American masculinity, as one of exuberant tween sexuality. Sometimes That Just Happens is in the spirit of Warhol while also looking in a way at Duchamp's 1919 L.H.O.O.Q in it's defacing of a print of Mona Lisa.
The BHQF was featured in the 2010 Whitney Biennial, as well as other group exhibitions at MoMA PS1 in Queens, Acquavella Gallery in New York, and Centre Pompidou in Paris, among others.

Homemade Hermes Birkin Bag ( Pink ) 2015 by Shelter Serra
By Shelter Serra
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Homemade Hermes Birkin Bag ( Kelly Green )
2015,
15”x14.5”x1.5” inches unframed, 18.75 "x 18.75 x 2.5 framed
Cast Resin, Edition of 15
Also available in Kelly Green, White, Gold and Silver. The frame is a white shadow box frame with plexiglass.
The Homemade Hermes Birkin Bag is a sculpture that celebrates the beauty, and status, that the docents of fashion have bestowed upon coveted objects and accessories as such. In a Duchampian gesture of representation, the artist has created an object that has been “elevated to uselessness”, yet reveals much about our society’s infatuation with consumption and materialism. Cast in resin the sculpture becomes an apropos trope of our time, a perfect conversation starter.
