Jean Baudrillard's definition of simulacrum, for instance, shattered the eternal art historical concern with the relationship between origin and copy. The opening song ends with a glum simulacrum of a kick-line spread across the proscenium, with the actors looking as if they're kicking with 20-lb. And in the ongoing Drawings of Removal, begun in 1999 and so far enacted at the Studio Museum in Harlem in 2002 and of UCLA's Hammer Museum in 2003-2004, the artist turns the gallery into a simulacrum of his own studio, working regularly in the space as viewers look on. |
