Sherrie Levine — Dada
Sherrie Levine

Dada

2008

A polished bronze sculpture by Sherrie Levine, *Dada* engages the artist's signature practice of appropriation and recontextualization, inviting reflection on originality, authorship, and art historical legacy. The work's material richness in cast bronze lends a classical weight and permanence to concepts rooted in subversion and anti-establishment thought. In transforming the irreverent spirit of Dada into a precious, enduring object, Levine highlights the tensions between rebellion and institutionalization within the art world.
