Artists in conversation

Cindy Sherman
American · b. 1954

Sherman's conceptual photographic works share Cattelan's use of the c-print medium and provocative, surreal staging to challenge perception and construct ironic narratives. Both artists use photography as a vehicle for bold conceptual statements rather than pure documentation.

Andres Serrano
American · b. 1950

Serrano creates large scale contemporary c-print photographic works that are deliberately provocative and conceptually charged, mirroring Cattelan's approach to using photography to create bold and unsettling juxtapositions. Both artists embrace controversy as a core element of their conceptual practice.

Nan Goldin
American · b. 1953

Goldin's photographic practice similarly employs c-prints mounted for display in gallery contexts, with a raw and conceptually layered approach to subject matter that resonates with Cattelan's interest in irony and contemporary life. Both share a modern sensibility in using photographic media to deliver emotionally and intellectually striking work.
