Italian sculptor Maurizio Cattelan is known for his satirical sculptures, and especially for his capacity to appropriate highly polemical icons. Many of his works offer poignant reflections on Italy’s socio-political actuality, or target clichés and the national image, packaged and presented for the tourist industry. Often the notion of the grotesque emerges in his body of work. Published on the occasion of Cattelan’s first solo exhibition in Spain, at CAC Málaga, comprising works from the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo collection, this catalogue reveals his work in all its intensity, humour and sarcasm. Includes a critical essay by Fernando Castro Flórez.00Exhibition: CAC Málaga, Spain, (03.10.2014-04.01.2015).
