"Norman Gekko -Big Crushed Tiffany Gift Box, 2019 “Distinguishing Marques” Serie
Cm. 60.0 x 55.0 x 55.0
Single work. Signed by Norman Gekko on the side. Authentication of the artist. The sculpture replicates a crushed Tiffany gift box and belongs to the series of works entitled ""Distinguishing Marques- distinctive signs""
The title of the series, a game about the term ""distinctive signs"" used by the police to identify people, adds a satirical and dramatic dimension to the works, in particular emphasizing the coexistence of a not very noble or refined material such as recycled cans, to the production of a work of the iconic brand ""Tiffany & Co"".
Gekko contrasts the game with the serious, contrasting the material used, cans and waste objects, with the finished product, the luxury item, as a parody of our obsessive slavery to everything considered fashionable; it is the contradiction at the center of Gekko's work and the recurring feature of his work."
