Joseph Klibansky Birthday Suit (polished bronze), 2020 11/20 Polished bronze 25 3/5 × 11 2/5 × 13 4/5 in | 65 × 29 × 35 cm includes a certificate Beautiful sculpture by the immensely popular artist Josep Klibanksy. "Birthday Suit is another term for 'standing in your nakedness.' It is the suit you were wearing when you were born. This chimp is standing in his nakie, with a party hat on, a rolling tongue in his mouth and a bunch of roses in his hand. He takes a bit of a cocked pose, with his belly forward. This sculpture stands in front of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the tallest building in the world. For me, this work is about taking or not taking opportunities. That could be in love - having the flowers, being ready for the party, but failing to make the move. Do you wait and see or are you someone who goes for it? Do you remain very comfortable working for the same boss or do you take the step to go into business for yourself? But of course everyone is allowed to have their own interpretation. For example: even if you stand in your nakedness, no matter how dastardly, stay true to yourself, to who you are, and have fun in life." #Rooms5
