Toilet Paper

Following in the wake of Maurizio Cattelan's cult publications "Permanent Food" and "Charley," this inaugural issue of the artist's newest print enterprise "Toilet Paper" comes straight from the aberrant, animated mind of the Italian-born provocateur, mischief-maker and macabre witness to our times. Conceived in collaboration with photographer Pierpaolo Ferrari and published by Deste, "Toilet Paper" contains no text but combines commercial photography with twisted narrative tableaux and surrealistic imagery to create a journal that is as appropriate for the coffee table as it is for the WC. Contributors to this founding issue include Jacopo Emiliani, Alberto Zanetti, Elisabetta Claudio, Federico Albertini and Andrea Mineo.
