Om skulpturen
With this predatory, aggressively-potent machine, the American–Japanese artist Tajiri depicted violence ‘made in USA.’ He lived in the Netherlands, but made the sculpture when he was a guest lecturer in America in 1964. In that year, American participation in the Vietnam War intensified, as is reflected in this freakish figure, which conveys the aggressive language of the machine gun.
