The painting titled "60s" is steeped in the atmosphere of the 1960s—a decade widely perceived as tragic, marked by the Vietnam War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the assassinations of Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., among other events. This era is evoked through a pair of exaggeratedly bold shoes, which also function as a cheap sexual fetish, a device the artist uses to critique the kitsch and amorality of consumer society.
