Book 6th Caribbean Biennial – A Project by Maurizio Cattelan

A real false biennial, imagined by Cattelan, which only offers the (very real) artists of the top 10 selected a week's vacation in the enchanting site of the Caribbean island of St. Kitt, without art, without work. Only the photos of Armin Linke and the special contributions of the artists bear witness to this disturbing event.

With Vanessa Beecroft, Olafur Eliasson, Douglas Gordon, Mariki Mori, Chirs Ofili, Gabriel Orozco, Elizabeth Peyton, Pipilotti Rist, Tobias Rehberger, Rirkrit Tiravanija.

Learn more about the author

Contemporary art superstar, Maurizio Cattelan (born 1960 in Padua, Italy, lives and works in New York and Milan) is currently one of the most collected living artists.

Often described as an art world joker, considered a provocateur who, following the tradition of the avant-garde, regularly transgresses the established boundaries used to define the art system and culture. society in general, Cattelan hides, behind the mask of irony, existential strategies which mix the comic, the abject and the tragic, as well as a consistent criticism of the various forms of authority and power, carried by power visual of his work.

Maurizio Cattelan is the editor of the artist magazines Permanent Food, Charley and Toilet Paper.

Co-edition with Janvier.
