Private Sales - Maurizio Cattelan - L.O.V.E. Finger sculpture (white edition) - 2014
Maurizio Cattelan is a celebrated Italian artist who is renowned for facetious sculptures and installations that poke fun at popular culture, history, and religion in a manner that is at once irreverent and bitingly critical. The miniaturization of one of Cattelan's controversial public works, in this edition capture the artist's knack for black humor.
