Window dressers began to use actual works of art from emerging artists as the background to their displays.

He hugs him, of course. So does our creepy friend symbolize Beck’s persistent guilt? Is he a Warhol Factory member who recently escaped from a time capsule? It’s always possible he’s just a rejected marionette left over from the “Information” tour. The video’s fun and ridiculous use of stop motion makes...
