Isabelle Frances McGuire - Karl Nude

$100.00

Karl Nude, 2025

Inkjet print on paper
5 × 7 Inches

“Naked Karl" portrays an animatronic sculpture with its skin peeled back - revealing the underlying mechanics. McGuire's sculpture "The Last Specialist (Karl Marx, Assassin's Creed)" combines the skull of an open-source sex robot with a plus sized preteen mannequin to render the image of Karl Marx from the video game Assassin's Creed. In "Naked Karl", we witness the sculpture in full frontal.

The prints are editioned by limited time, available only from October 15 - December 15, 2025. After this date, this image will not be made available in this format again.
