Curatorial note

Seen from Cottage Street, the red SUV occupies the curb as a durable presence in the street's ordinary texture. The removal of the front wheel exposes a bright yellow brake caliper, a small but legible sign of its in-progress state. Acquired January 2026 and on view for 103 days, the work fixes a moment of maintenance as a long-standing form in the collection.
