A true false biennial imagined by Maurizio Cattelan, who offers ten chosen artists a one-week vacation on the enchanting island of St. Kitts, with no art and no work to do. Only the photos by Armin Linke and the artists' special contributions are what remains of this disturbing event.
With Vanessa Beecroft, Olafur Eliasson, Douglas Gordon, Mariki Mori, Chirs Ofili, Gabriel Orozco, Elisabeth Peyton, Pipilotti Rist, Tobias Rehberger, Rirkrit Tiravanija.
Maurizio Cattelan (born 1960 in Padova, Italy, lives in New York and Milan) is one of the leading contemporary artist and his works are much desired collector's items that often reach astronomically high prices at auction sales – although the artist is not dead yet.
He runs the artist's magazine Permanent Food, Charley and Toilet Paper.
