Wim Delvoye at Perrotin

Perfect craftsmanship allows Wim Delvoye’s fabricated, ready-made sculptures to fool the eye, tricking us into thinking he’s performing magic with pieces like this twisting tire. Constructed completely in polished and patinated stainless steel, this remade motorbike tire is fit for a stunt bike.   (On view on the Lower East Side at Perrotin through Oct 28th).
