Ji Lee project called “Duchamp Reloaded.”

A riff on Marcel Duchamp’s readymades, Lee recreates Duchamp’s famed Bicycle Wheel, chaining them alongside other bikes on NYC sidewalks. Playing the concept up even more, he often positions them in front of galleries and museums where Duchamp’s works might have been exhibited at one point.

“In 1913, Marcel Duchamp took found objects from the streets and placed them in museums. Ninety-six years later, if Duchamp were alive, he may want to do the very opposite.”
