Untitled (Picasso)

Maurizio Cattelan L.O.V.E. concrete sculpture of classical hand on pedestal with raised middle finger, minimalist and satirical.

Concrete sculpture. Stamped by the artist's estate. L.O.V.E. by Maurizio Cattelan, produced in 2015, is a concrete sculpture measuring 40 × 18 × 18 cm, part of an edition of 1800. A scaled-down replica of his controversial Milan monument, the work features a classical hand with all fingers severed except the middle—flipping the viewer off in a bold, confrontational gesture. The title, an acronym ambiguously interpreted, contrasts sharply with the sculpture's provocative message. Cattelan's piece critiques authority, finance, and institutional power, using minimalist form and biting satire to question reverence and monumentality in public art.

What is Performance Art?

Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
