Paduan artist Maurizio Cattelan has always managed to make a strong impression since the beginning of his rise in the contemporary art system. Printed media and websites of every type to talk about him constantly. An emblematic case occurred on 6th May 2004, when the city of Milan woke up bewildered to one of his works installed in Piazza XXIV Maggio. Three plastic manikins, representing children hanging from the branch of a large oak tree, provoked a great emotional impact and a huge psychological stir.
CONVINCED OR SKEPTICAL?
Other impressive works are “Nona Ora”, which portrays Pope John Paul II in a white cloth crushed to the floor by a meteorite, or a kneeling baby Hitler.
