Bemerkung:

The word "appropriate" can have two very different meanings depending on whether it is used as an adjective or a verb. In the case of Permanent Food, artist Maurizio Cattelan and Paola Manfrin`s periodical of pilfering, it is the active usage of the word, and only the active usage, that is appropriate. Bound together in each issue is a thoroughly bewildering, amusing, grotesque and blasª selection of images culled from anywhere, everywhere and nowhere: a German electrical company`s ad featuring Tom and Jerry; a trash-strewn airplane interior; a naked fashion model with wide tan lines; a detail of a Victorian dummy; "super-tech" eyelashes by MAC; a naked woman with her toes in a skeleton`s eye and nose sockets; a Mapplethorpe photograph of two leather men; a sweet ceramic puppy; a snow field; a crashed VW beetle; and much, much more. You can`t even imagine how much more. Gutes Exemplar.
