No. That said, Richard Serra's "Tilted Arc" was definitely a premium mediocre duck.

Venturi saw the duck as being undesirable in its own right, so the decorated shed was more of an alternative. But from a postmodern point of view (which he wouldn’t really admit to having) he in certain ways tried to embrace the realities of mediocrity on their own terms.

Agreed - in the 1970s the duck was probably more premium mediocre. Duck=modernism which had highbrow connotations, which were exploited by premium mediocrity purveyors (bland modernist office parks, etc)

Doing so would require flattening the complexity of premium mediocre so much as to render it no more than a sort of super sizing. I don’t think the analogy preserves the psycho-social relations...

... and sorting ducks and sheds requires a theoretical framework, of which any number of shufflings are possible, including the possibility that they can’t be ordered
