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 Lettrism?
Lettrism is an art form that uses letters, words, and symbols to create artwork. The movement was established in Paris in the 1940s and later gained popularity in the 1950s in America. Lettrisme is the French spelling of the movement's name, derived from the French word for letter.
