再出奇招！MSCHF 最新巨型雕塑「King Solomon's Baby」將依據買家數量分割多份
本文看點 紐約布魯克林藝術與時尚團體MSCHF以其大膽創意再次引發熱議，繼今年初在 Nanzuka Underground 舉辦的「Material Values」展覽後，他們回歸故鄉，推出全新作品「King Solomon's Baby」。這座大型雕塑將於 7 月 10 日在Pioneer Works亮相，以當代視角重新詮釋聖經中「所羅門王斷子」的寓言，將作品的命運交由買家決定，進行一場別開生面的「肢解」實驗。 規則簡單明瞭：若僅一位買家購入，雕塑將以 10 萬美元的價格完整出售；若有多位買家參與，作品將依人數分割——兩位買家各支付 5 萬美元獲得一半，三位買家則分成三份，以此類推，最多可分割成 1000 份，每份僅需 100 美元。MSCHF 稱這為「財務信任跳躍 Financial Trust Fall」，邀請收藏家下注，賭其他人會跟進，分攤成本並為早期參與者「背書」。 這件作品延續了 MSCHF 一貫的參與式奇觀風格，通過諷刺性的創作揭示市場價值與所有權的荒誕。他們過去的作品，如 Art Basel Miami 的「ATM 排行榜」或將Damien Hirst 畫作切割成單點出售，皆以挑釁方式挑戰藝術市場邏輯。 「King Solomon's Baby」將於美東時間 7 月 10 日下午 2 點在 7 點至 9 點在 Pioneer Works 舉行公開接待，8 點 30 分進行象徵性的首刀切割。隨後兩天，雕塑將根據最終買家數量完成分割，這一過程將在線上直播並開放現場觀看，最終的碎片狀態將展出至 7 月 13 日的 Pioneer Works 第二週的週日活動。 MSCHF 以幽默的方式解決了藝術品購買、儲存與運輸的物流難題，提出「何不共同分擔？」的挑釁問題。這不僅是一場藝術實驗，更是一次對消費文化與收藏行為的深刻反思。 相關報導 >走進陶瓷器工作室 ZI YONE CRAFT STUDIO 展覽《In use, In pause》 >攝影師 Greg Girard 新作《HK:PM》登陸 M+ 幕牆，重現 70 至 90 年代香港光影之旅 >盧浮宮為解決遊客擁擠問題啟動 2.7 億歐元設計競賽，將為「蒙娜麗莎」打造專屬展廳

MSCHF's ‘King Solomon's Baby' Sculpture Is Meant To Be Dismembered
Summary After turning heads withMaterial Values, hosted at Nanzuka Underground earlier this year, creative collectiveMSCHFmakes a return to its Brooklyn roots with 'King Solomon's Baby', a large-scale sculpture bound for the butcher. Debuting on July 10 atPioneer Works, the piece revives the biblical parable with a contemporary twist, placing its fate of dismemberment in the hands of its buyers. The premise is simple: if sold to just one buyer, the sculpture will go for $100,000 USD as is. But if multiple partiers chime in, the artwork will be split accordingly – two buyers will each get $50,000 USD halves, three buyers means three slices, and so on. It's what the collective calls a 'financial trust fall,' inviting collectors to take a gamble, hoping others will follow and retroactively justify their buy-in. The project builds MSCHF's streak of participatory spectacles which expose the absurdity of market value and worth via satirical inventions and artworks. It's the same game of trust and ownership seen in previous pieces, like the Art Basel MiamiATM Leaderboardor the time theysevered and solda Damien Hirst painting as single dots. Sales open 2PM EST on July 10. The public reception runs from 7–9PM at Pioneer Works, with the ceremonial first slice at 8:30PM. Over the next two days, the sculpture will be divided into its final number of pieces in a durational performance, streamed online and viewable in person. The work in its fragmented final state will remain on display through Pioneer Works' July Second Sunday. A cheeky solution to the logistical headache of art buying, storing and shipping, MSCHF asks: why not split the burden?
