 MADAME 
                    SOLEIL EXPOSED IN THE FLESH MUSÉE 
                    GALLERIA, PARISJUNE/SEPTEMBER 1975
 The 
                    artist creates an installation in the midst of which the renowned 
                    psychic Madame Soleil makes daily live appearances, surrounded 
                    by blown-up images of her press clippings and video footage 
                    of her at home with her children and grandchildren. The result 
                    is not the demystification of a pop culture icon turned into 
                    a ready-made, but a deconstruction of the mythical objectivity 
                    of the museological institution itself. ^ |
