Bibliography: - "Maurizio Cattelan", by Francesco Bonami, London, 2000 (reproduced p. 66,68 and 69) - Maurizio Cattelan", by Francesco Bonami, London, 2003 (reproduced p. 66,68 and 69). Note: Duchamp is dead! Long live Cattelan! Such is Maurizio, a self-taught artist, certainly the most gifted of the 21st century, the very man who overthrew the Pope and brought Hitler to his knees. A shocking yet thought-provoking artist. In the work we're auctioning, he asks us about the role of school, which the artist sums up as "learning to fail". In the same spirit as the work "Charlie don't surf", in which the young man is literally nailed to his school desk by pencils, he shows how, through constraint, we seek to subjugate those who don't fit the mold, those who are different because they are too lively, too intelligent, too free or too much of everything. These punishments, in the form of repetitive, stupid and alienating lines, lead to minor humiliations and bruised egos. Not everyone dies, of course, but some go down, and others, rarer still, decide to escape... Today, his works can be found in the world's most famous museums, in the most prestigious collections, including that of François Pinault. Each new work by the artist provokes a systemic reaction and emotion in the art world and in society at large. After his retrospective in New York in 2012, the ultimate recognition for a living artist, the Asian world has recently taken an interest in his work, with a retrospective at Art Beijing in China in 2022. Whether it's his banana taped to the wall sold for €120,000 at Art Basel, his self-portraits sold for several million dollars or his "Him" sold for $17 million in New York, the prices of Cattelan's works are soaring with him! There's no stopping the former dunce Maurizio, half embarrassed half amused on his bike, he smiles... "This work created in 1991, originally entitled repetita invant, refers to the repetitive writing exercises that teachers used to give pupils, as a form of punishment. "Fighting in class is dangerous" was spelled out a thousand times, dictated over and over again, and written on numerous sheets of school notebooks, which the little Italians then had to display on the classroom walls. Equally present and insistent are the red corrections that change a simple preposition in each sentence. The slightest change in the preposition ("in" versus "di") carries with it a more important warning through its repetition: "Class struggle is dangerous". In interviews, Cattelan has explained how his work was influenced by the difficulties he experienced at school, in particular a failed reading test, which he remembers with particular pain. More than a simple reflection on education, this work relates disruptions at school to political resistance, seeing the school system as a microcosm of the social tensions that persist and endure in the adult world. Indeed, the lesson learned by heart (through repetition), forces docility and submission in young minds that are future citizens" (Nancy Spector, Maurizio Cattelan: All - Guggenheim Museum Exhibition Catalogue, New York, 2009, page 93).
