2006<br \/>\nsilicone, wood, mirror, motor, motion detector<br \/>\nca. 150 x 50 x 50 cm<\/p>\n<p>The piece was inspired by Federico Fellini\u00b4s Film \u2018City of Women\u2019 (1979), in which Marcello Mastroianni has to surrender to the force of the assumedly weaker sex. The sculpture\u00b4s title alludes to various shades of red lipstick that Johanna Smiatek groups on a table-sized wood pedestal in the form of enlarged silicone casts, creating a shape reminiscent of a skyline. The elastic silicone lipsticks stand on a board that vibrates when a viewer approaches. A mirror is mounted underneath the board, with the city names \u2018Paris\u2019, \u2018Zurich\u2019, \u2018London\u2019 and \u2018Berlin\u2019 written on it in various shades of red, and which can be read by the viewer with the help of a further mirror mounted at knee height.<br \/>\nThe material-iconographic proximity of silicone to objects from the realm of erotica is consciously reflected, with the chain of phallic associations progressing from wavering skyscrapers to lipsticks on women\u00b4s lips to vibrators. This calls a famous work of American Pop Art to mind. Claes Oldenburg\u00b4s object \u2018Lipstick (Ascending) on Caterpillar Tracks\u2019, installed at Yale 1969, had a huge lipstick form on a tank-track base at its base. The juxtaposition and fusion of feminine and male attributes was advanced with kinetic measures in this case as well. In its original version, the sculpture had a pneumatic mechanism for swelling and shrinking the lipstick, which was only made from colored fabric.<br \/>\nJohanna Smiatek has worked with the elasticity of the material silicone in previous works, casting red ladies\u00b4 shoes in silicone on square boards of wood that are animated with a motor ( <em>Schuhflimmern<\/em>, 2002). She is intrigued by the material\u00b4s quivering and the sense of a seemingly magic animation of the sculptures.
