His next major show, “Creativity is the Enemy”, opened in 1998 at New York’s Thomas Healy Gallery and Paris’ Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac. It built on the discourse established in “Cultural Prosthetics” with sculptures like Chanel Guillotine (1998)[3] and Prada Deathcamp (1998). Other pieces, like Hermés Value Meal (1998)[4], moved away from explicit references to violence and paired fashion with other successful brands, like McDonald’s. Also included in the show were gaffer’s tape versions of Piet Mondrian’s famous compositions [5] [6]. Like the Hermes sculptures, the Mondrian paintings were things Sachs desired but could not have, so he made them instead. As Sachs puts it, “making it is a way of having it.”
