Wim Delvoye Cloaca Coke Light Cans, 2002 '3 Available, Price Per Can'
About the Item
Cloaca coke light cans by Wim Delvoye, new unopened, 3 available (price per can). Made for his first solo show in USA at the New Museum NY in 2002.
Also available, 5 Mugs Cloaca by Wim Delvoye made for his 2002 solo exhibition at the NY New Museum.
"This exhibition of Wim Delvoye’s large-scale installation Cloaca represents the first-ever solo presentation by a U.S. museum of the acclaimed young Belgian artist’s work. Built from chemical beakers, electric pumps, and plastic tubing arrayed on a series of seven stainless steel tables, Cloaca is the result of a three-year collaboration between the artist and scientists at the University of Antwerp, whose shared mission was to duplicate the functions of the human digestive system as closely as possible. Cloaca is fed twice a day from a large funnel reached by climbing a stepladder.
At the work’s inauguration, Delvoye himself ascended the ladder carrying a tray laden with a tasty and substantial Belgian meal of mushroom soup, filet of fish, and a rich pudding, which he dropped in the funnel a dollop at a time. The food is chewed by a garbage disposal device before traveling on a 27-hour-long digestive trajectory, through six glass vats connected by tubes and pipes, pumps and various electronic components that are Cloaca‘s stomach, pancreas, and small and large intestines. The “digesting” food is constantly kept at a precise 37.2 degrees centigrade and each of Cloaca’s “organs” is full of computer-monitored enzymes, bacteria, acids and bases such as pepsin, pancreatin, and hydrochloric acid. The product finally goes through a separator and the remaining solids are extruded onto a conveyer belt." by Dan Cameron, Senior Curator.

The Flamingo birdhouse by Jason Sargenti, 2020 usa
Located in Chicago, IL
Handmade architectural birdhouse by Jason Sargenti, hand-signed dated, USA 2020.
"Inspired by the Flamingo side-table by Michele de Lucchi for Memphis 1984.The influence of the Memphis and Studio Alchimia are touchstone for me. Movements misunderstood, hated, incomprehensible, to most my peers, cause of consternation, passion and debate on what is supposed to be good taste. Still so pregnant with life and vibrancy, yet aloof to humans in 2020. Less original more of a hommage." J Sargenti
Made of inpainted sandpaper and somber pattern painted wood.
8” x 5” x 6”
The Flamingo birdhouse is a brilliant re-interpretation of the landmark Memphis Group Flamingo side table designed by Michele de Lucchi. Memphis creations have now crossed time, generations and fashions to become pinacle events in design history and art, still breathing creative freedom and radicalism into today’s design creations. Called the Flamingo side table, Michele de Lucchi’s icon has been entirely remodeled by Jason Sargenti who made it stand in the manner of a Z-shaped Flamingo silhouette. All the original elements of the Memphis Flamingo...
