I’m reluctant to be a dog painting person, but I have no problem being a dog sculpture person. As long as it’s Rachel Harrison’s Hotdog Dog, a 2011 edition in, of all things, cast aluminum. Conservators are smiling.

There is one coming up at Kenny Schachter’s latest binge & purge auctions, this time at Sotheby’s.
