« Dog days | FLOWER POWER, A COLLAGE WITH A TOUCH OF PLUM BRANDY. » |
This picture started with the idea on doing something with the dollar bill. I don't know if the collage is a real good one - but there's still some complication in it when one examines it closely. Anyway, a dollar is not very sexy by itself, seen from an artist's point of view. Warhol made his 200 1 Dollar Bills, it is done by repetition and multiplication (Arman). That's litteral but very effective. Googling through the images, one can see that "artists" often just change one thing, namely the face of George Washington, with a complete lack of inspiration imo.I retain the act of burning money (Serge Gainsbourg) as much more provocative. Van Reymerswaele is much more aggressive. The social aspect still present with G.Grosz a.o. has disppeared now as the elite has accepted the reign of money.
