Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan opens his first major solo exhibition in Germany in Berlin, titled “Night.” The show presents provocative works that explore themes of power, violence, death, faith and uncertainty. Euronews reports that the exhibition includes notable pieces such as a sculpture associated with Adolf Hitler, alongside unsettling imagery such as an exhausted horse and works involving pigeons.
Both outlets describe the exhibition as one that engages with dark historical and symbolic material, using disturbing figures to examine how belief, doubt and authority can shape perceptions. The coverage emphasizes the range of subjects and the atmosphere the artworks create, rather than presenting new biographical details about the artist. While the descriptions differ in emphasis—one foregrounds the overall thematic scope and the presence of multiple elements, and the other highlights specific works in the exhibition—both agree that “Night” is centered on Cattelan’s confrontation with power and its consequences.
