Art With a Touch of Humor

 


I have found some very fascinating art works at the Tate Britain in London and this last trip was no different.  I was drawn to this crazy contraption and I sat watching it for a quite a while.  

















As you can see from the museum description card, it was created in 1964 by the British artist Bruce Lacey.  Lacey was expressing his hesitancy about recent scientific developments.  

By the way, that pulley on the leg would periodically exercise the leg.  It was fun to watch.

I love the face. What would the artist make of technology 40 years later?
