Form

Sculpture / Object

Sculpture / ObjectA sculpture is a three-dimension object made using any one of the basic sculpting processes. These include carving, casting, constructing or modeling. Carving materials may be bone, ivory, stone or wood. Modeling and casting use clay or wax, while constructions glue materials together.

Medium

Sculpture

SculptureMixed media refers to artwork that incorporates more than one medium within a single piece. Unlike multimedia art, which combines distinct forms of visual art and often includes elements like sound, video, or digital media, mixed media focuses on combining traditional art materials, such as paint, ink, and collage. Mixed media art allows artists to achieve a wide range of effects and textures by layering and blending different materials.

It's not my job to tell people what a work means.
- Maurizio Cattelan

Known for his satirical and shocking sculptures and installations, Maurizio Cattelan is revered for his irreverent, subversive and often controversial works. Cattelan does not shy away from the use of taboo themes such as taxidermy – one of his most recognised and shocking works is Novecento; the body of a former race-horse, hanging by a harness in a drooping position. Darkly humorous and critical at the same time, Cattelan often commented on current affairs or public figures; La Nona Ora was a work that portrayed Pope John Paul II being hit by a meteorite. Describing himself as a lazy artist, Cattelan’s works are often simple to the point that they validate his description; one of his earliest exhibitions saw him hang a ‘Be Back Soon’ sign outside the gallery, which he kept closed for the duration – a fitting example of the humorous, tongue-in-cheek nature that pervades his work.

What is Kitsch?

Kitsch is a term used to describe cheap, commercial, sentimental, or vulgar art and objects commonly associated with popular culture. The word is borrowed from German, where it originally means trash. Since the 1920s, kitsch has been used to denote the opposite of high art, often implying that the work lacks sophistication or artistic merit.
