Jean Tinguely's centenary reflects on his legacy of kinetic sculptures that critique postwar mechanization and consumerism, themes increasingly relevant amid advancements in AI and ongoing climate issues. His self-destructive works, like "Homage to New York," resonate with contemporary fears about technology's role in society. Meanwhile, O.G. McRibb, a persona of artist Scott Hove, challenges the art world with dark humor and critiques of capitalist destruction. His art speaks to the duality of despair and hope, illustrating the tension between nature and industrialization.
Tinguely's works satirize postwar mechanization and consumerism, reflecting modern anxieties about AI and climate change, as seen with current technological developments.
McRibb illustrates a desire to be unremarkable, allowing the art to take center stage while confronting fears of industry versus nature.
