“…. brightly-colored, hollow cast rubber heads represent the artist himself. Grimacing, open-mouthed, in each identical copy he seems to be flinching in anticipation of yet another decapitation (or perhaps a well-placed kick). The technical reproduction of these heads, all obviously cast from the same mold, resonates of course with the photograph’s capacity to endlessly reproduce identical images.”
