Description by the gallery owner

Masterpieces is an oil and acrylic on canvas measuring 50×70 centimetres. It is part of Misplaced, the iconic series in which Accardi overturns everyday situations to cause an aesthetic-cultural shock in the viewer. In this case, Masterpieces depicts the rooms of a museum, dotted with masterpieces of contemporary art. At the center of the scene, a Marilyn by Andy Warhol and a Love sculpture by Robert Indiana have caught the attention of an ostrich with iridescent green plumage. Its beak, extended downwards, is in the same position in which birds eat their birdseed. In the adjacent rooms you can see a Murakami, a Damien Hirst, a Keith Haring. Two other ostriches stroll in the main room, admiring the masterpieces while two Minions converse with the air of those who are telling each other secrets. The presence of the ostriches, removed from their context and catapulted into the museum rooms, creates a sense of disorientation and suspension. The absence of human beings leaves a certain sense of disquiet and a series of distressing questions. What happened to the human race? Has it perhaps become extinct? Isn't he more worthy of the creativity of the greats of art? Was he defeated by animals? The response is to the spectator, who is called to have an active role in the work.
