Nothing says office holiday party like a dude planted on the Xerox machine with his pants down, photocopying his butt. But back to that later.
On Saturday, LACMA is unveiling the outdoor sculptural installation “Farewell, Work Holiday Parties,” by L.A. artist “This is a very difficult time and there hasn’t been much humor in the world in the last nine months; it’s been a lot of hatred and a lot of polarization,” Prager says. “Humor is a way to shine light on something that’s not necessarily an easy thing to experience — we can’t have these parties right now, we can’t have any parties — and this allows us to laugh at ourselves.”
The result is very much an ode to old-school, Hollywood practical effects, a discipline that Gonzalez says is “on the verge of obsolescence.” There’s even detail viewers will never see. The guy on the copy machine? Pry back his underwear band and there’s a tuft of fuzzy hair in his butt crack. Sorry, or maybe you’re welcome: Visitors aren’t allowed to touch the work.
