Description

These objects were sold under the simple name “Advanced Painting Palette” at a Berlin flea market in 2013. Not a single customer noticed the obvious imitation of Edvard Munch’s iconic painting “The Scream”; instead, people talked about the type of wood, the quality of workmanship, ideal hand positions, and the holes for painting medium and turpentine. A much-praised feature: two additional holes for frequently used brushes.
