Mileaf, Janine

Journal Article

"Cut out the eye from a photograph of one who has been loved but is seen no more. Attach the eye to the pendulum of a metronome and regulate the weight to suit the tempo desired. Keep going to the limit of endurance. With a hammer well-aimed, try to destroy the whole at a single blow." With these words, Man Ray declared an art object that was at the edge of his control. The formula for creating the work was given. Reproduction and demolition were sanctioned. Even the emotional content was transferable. This was an object that could provoke and accept the blows of anyone's desire.
