Maurizio Cattlelan Frieze??

Jock Walker

i read a few journals this week i sat in the high demmand section and managed to choose the probably the five most boring journal magazines ever, Artlink, art and Australia, asia pacific, art in america (the most interesting). i managed to fall asleep and dribble on myself alittle embarassing with about ten people around me. I have seen cool stuff in some of these journals before but i just picked some badies.

Any way when i was doin some artist research i came across a Frieze article on Maurizio Cattelan i couldnt find the magazine no. etc so im just gonna put alink in to the page Which is......http://www.frieze.com/feature_single.asp?f=1078

This article was extremely long it mentions about fifteen of Maurizio's amazin works, Talks about him 'making darkly comic work that holds a mirror up to our pomposities, foibles and fears' I really like his stuff we have alll seen it in class. The article also talks about the wrong gallery that Maurizio was apart of interesting stuff a non-profit gallerys mocking a upper market gallery next door. It gos on a bit about Cattelan playing the court jester role of the artworld but tryin to escape with reference to works he has done with tunnels under the floor and tied bed sheets hangin out the window ( i think sometimes these people talk crap just to make there articles look longer). He has done oddles of crazy works love em all
