Este cuadro se relaciona con trabajos anteriores de Cattelan, en particular el Bidibidobidiboo (1996), cargado de emociones, en el que una ardilla de taxidermia parece haberse suicidado. Al reducir la experiencia humana a una escala en miniatura, Cattelan exagera la fragilidad de la vida. El trabajo de Cattelan equilibra la inocencia y el humor infantiles con la violencia o la muerte.
En la instalación de Cattelan, el espectador busca un mundo dentro de un mundo, una narrativa doméstica dentro de un entorno doméstico, bajo el techo de un espacio público. Encontrar el conflicto privado es inquietante a pesar de que se presenta de manera cómica. Quizás sea demasiado familiar, evocando recuerdos tempranos de descubrir la diferencia entre el mundo real y el imaginario. Al dislocar la experiencia del cubo blanco del espacio de la galería al entorno familiar, Cattelan traslada la experiencia artística del ámbito público al personal. Sin embargo, al mismo tiempo, lo privado se hace más público.
Mientras que en la superficie las obras de Cattelan entretienen, al considerarlas más de cerca se desarrolla la condición trágica de la comedia. El artista nos recuerda que la risa cura, no como un escape sino como una liberación de nuestras experiencias.
Maurizio Cattelan was born in Padua, Italy in 1960. Based in Milan and New York, Cattelan has exhibited his work widely throughout the 1990s. He has had one-person shows in Europe and the U.S., including projects at Galeria Neon, Bologna (1990); Ars Futura, Zurich (1996); Castello di Rivoli, Turin (1997), Wiener Secession, Vienna (1997); Espace Jules Vergne, Centre d’Art de Britigny-sur-Orge, (1997), INOVA, Milwaukee (1998), The Museum of Modern Art, New York (1998); Kunsthalle Basel (1999); and the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris (2000). Cattelan represented Italy at the 1997 Venice Biennale, sharing the Italian Pavilion with Enzo Cucchi and Ettore Spalletti. In addition, he has participated in numerous group exhibitions, including the Aperto 93, Venice Biennial (1993); Kwangju Biennial (1995); SITE Santa Fe’s Truce (1997); Sculpture Project Munster (1997); Istanbul Biennial (1997); Manifesta (1998); and dAPERTtutto, Venice Biennial (1999). In 1999, he organized the 6th Caribbean Biennial in St. Kitts, British West Indies. His work is the subject of a monograph published by Phaidon in 2000.
Cattelan’s works blur the boundaries between art and entertainment, performance and reality. Situationist humor is key to Cattelan’s work, which provokes the viewer while pushing the boundaries of the self-contained art world and the frame of the exhibition space. His sculptures, installations, actions and performances critique the dominant structures of cultural production, questioning the politics, hierarchies and class systems that define contemporary life.
