Kitsch


The masterpiece we see above is "A-Z Thundering Prairie Dog" made by Andrea Zittel in 1996. It is composed of wood, steel, wiring, and insulation. There are also a microphone, an amplifier, and a loudspeaker included in this piece. If this isn't kitsch, I don't know what is. This piece is so over the top and crazy that it draws everyone's attention. Whether it be the prairie dog shape, or the voice changing microphone/amplifier combination, this work is certainly an interesting piece that captivates the interest of many. It differs greatly from the norm. It's kitschtastic.
