FAHRRADI Model MD (- Marcel Duchamp) Sculpture

FAHRRADI MODEL MD (Marcel Duchamp) A hybrid vehicle - car - bicycle - art object Homage to Marcel Duchamp Marcel Duchamp on his first readymade entitled "Bicycle Wheel" from 1913: ' Spinning the wheel was very soothing, calming, more of a way of opening pathways to things other than material life every day. It was like having a fireplace in my studio, the movement of the wheel reminded me of the movement of flames" Four of Marcel Duchamp's well-known objects form the chassis of the new racing car. The design is determined by the shark mouth and cigar shape of classic racing cars from the 50s and 60s. Color - Ferrari Red - Rosso Corsa The vehicle is unmanned, for this reason it is not possible to drive the vehicle yourself. The top speed of the vehicle is 0 kmH, surpassing the already exceptional slowness of the previous models. FAHRRADI FARFALLA - und FERDINAND GT3 - Despite the impossibility of entering the vehicle yourself, the object is fully functional. This results from the movement, described by Marcel Duchamp as soothing and calming, which occurs as a result of the rotation of the wheels. (Jacking up the object from the side ensures this effect.)
