don’t you just love when artistic brilliance is indisputable.
“All” exhibition by Maurizio Cattelan: consisting of 128 pieces of his life’s work hanging in the rotunda of the Guggenheim Museum.
Working in a vein that can be described as hyperrealist, Cattelan creates unsettlingly veristic sculptures that reveal contradictions at the core of today’s society. While bold and irreverent, the work is also deadly serious in its scathing critique of authority and the abuse of power.
“my only influence is that you are human, and you have this time, of hours, months and years, and then you disappear…and most people think this won’t repeat, so nothing can be more inspiring than that. you have a sense of crisis all the time, everyday.”
