Rosemarie Trockel
Entenanhänger
Self-published, 1998
13.6 x 18.3 x 1.5 cm.
Edition of 35 signed, dated and numbered copies
A custom-made linen-covered cardboard box housing two postcard images of a duck (one plucked, the other not), a rubber stamp image of another duck, and a silver pendant necklace.
The pendant is a cartoonish duck figure, sometimes cited as Donald Duck, though Trockel has used the image of the duck in many prior works, without reference to Disney.
The duck is sporting an erection and the necklace appears to be strangling him, suggesting either autoerotic asphyxiation or simply "death erection". The latter phenomenon - also called "angel lust', "rigor erectus", or "terminal erection" - has been attributed to pressure on the cerebellum created by the noose.
Willis Webster Grube, writing in the 1897 Compendium of practical medicine for the use of students and practitioners of medicine, notes "Erection has long been observed to follow injuries to the cerebellum and spinal cord. Out of eleven cases of cerebellar hemorrhage, erection of the penis was noted six times by Serres. Death by hanging is often accompanied by partial erection."
Entenanhänger comes with a signed, dated and numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
