In 1993, avant-garde artist Marcel Duchamp made a reference to the bachelor machine as a jumble of mechanical implements and schematic diagrams. In the exhibition, the bachelor of this art-historical definition becomes the “bachelorette”, echoing the song written and released by Björk in 1997.
Inspired by the artistic concept of the bachelor machine, the exhibition highlights the ideas and physical labour of these artists’ work.
