From the first point of view, it is difficult to connect this image with an art. Only having assured that you are looking at another masterpiece of Ugo Rondinone, an artist “best known for his circular spray paintings and video environments that convey a sense of melancholy and alienation”, you start trying to understand the inner meaning of that artwork. The artist is famous for his unusual approach for art. Being strange and sometimes even absurd, they still serve to transfer an artists idea. What is painted in the picture and what it symbolises remains the secret and it is up for the viewer to solve it.
