Felix Gonzalez-Torres

Untitled (Perfect Lovers), 1987-1990 
Wall clocks, 35.6 x 71.2 x 7 cm overall

Gonzales-Torres’s iconic work “Untitled” (Perfect Lovers) is a pair of identically round, ready-made wall clocks, with their batteries synchronized to the same time upon installation. Although their synchronous movement seems interminable, the clocks eventually fall out of sync due to the mechanical glitches, and one clock ultimately expires before the other. Considering the artist’s relationship with his lifelong partner, Ross, who battled with AIDS for most of the 8 years they were together, every minute and second of time resonates with exceptional poignancy. At the same time, the ordinariness of the clocks does not readily reveal the subtle references contained within. The paired clocks not only symbolize the couple’s love, life and death, but their identical shapes also allude to homosexuality, expressing the artist’s subtle yet powerful statement against social prejudice.

Snowy Mooncake

The snowy mooncake (冰皮月饼, Bīng pí yuèbǐng) is a modern version of the traditional mooncake. They are non-baked and chilled, which gives it the name “snowy”. The outer skin is made with glutinous rice flour and is very much like mochi, and the fillings are usually made with fruit, red bean, taro, custard, or black sesame paste.
