Cattelan, Maurizio | Untitled (Picasso), 1999 — available on Composition Gallery
Ilfochrome print, signed with artist stamp.
Untitled (Picasso) by Maurizio Cattelan is a provocative photograph that captures a surreal encounter in an urban setting. Created in 1999 as part of a limited edition of 1000, the photograph depicts a figure wearing an oversized Picasso head costume, dressed in a classic striped shirt reminiscent of Picasso’s style. The figure stands in a bustling cityscape, likely New York’s Times Square, interacting with a passerby in a humorous and unsettling juxtaposition of art and everyday life. Cattelan, known for his satirical approach, uses this piece to blur the boundaries between the revered artist and contemporary culture, presenting Picasso as a larger-than-life character integrated into modern society. The Ilfochrome print measures 40 cm by 30 cm and is signed with the artist's stamp, highlighting Cattelan’s unique blend of irony and reverence in contemporary art.

What is Kitsch?

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.
