For me this sums up the ethos of the readymade and Dada, taking everyday/mundane objects out of context makes them something else. For me I find beauty in seeing a piece of artwork in which certain components have lived a life before being displayed as art for example Duchamp’s urinal, it was his idea to take it out of context and therefore because he says it is art, it is and it is to be admired and ridiculed as any art is. What you are viewing is someone’s idea.
