Edition of 100
KAWS (b. 1974) Pinocchio Nose Invitation for Giswil, 2013 Karimoku wood 9-5/8 x 1-3/4 x 1-3/4 inches (24.4 x 4.6 x 4.6 cm) Edition of 100 Produced by More Gallery, Switzerland KAWS' Pinocchio Nose Invitation is a limited edition piece that also functioned as a personal invitation for his 2013 exhibition in Giswil, only given to VIP collectors. Pinocchio, a character from the Italian children's novel "The Adventures of Pinocchio" by Carlo Collodi, is famous for his nose, which grows longer every time he tells a lie. This physical transformation has become a widely recognized metaphor for the consequences of lying. This iconic aspect of the character has transcended the story itself. It has become a cultural symbol for the act of lying and the inherent moral lessons about honesty and integrity. In the context of KAWS's broader oeuvre, it also exemplifies his skill in taking universally recognized elements from pop culture and re-contextualizing them in thought-provoking ways.
