April 9th, 1917, almost 102 years ago, Marcel Duchamp forced the art world to rethink the nature of art. Duchamp presented an upside-down urinal signed and dated with the signature “R. Mutt, 1917,” and titled Fountain. Today Sarah Lucas, an English art star, has transformed a bottle of Austrian winemaker Meinklang's Pinot Noir, asking questions about the nature of wine and its relationship to art. The piece Mienklang Sarah Lucas, part of her Au Naturel show, is a bottle of Meinklang Pinot Noir with the letters S-A-R-A-H L-U-C-A-S cut out of cardboard and attached to the bottle with wire. And how did one of England's most recognized contemporary artists find interest with a cult Austrian natural wine?
