Expectations of a certain speed and standard of production can be a source of anxiety in artists that can cause a mental block that ends up in a stoppage of production. In 1989 artist Maurizio Cattelan was commissioned his first solo exhibition. Cattelan suddenly felt that he would not be able to create any work worthy of the commission. He became very anxious and unable to create. Finally he hanged a sign at the door that read“ Torno Subito”( Back Soon) and locked the gallery door. This became the piece for his first solo exhibition. Cattelan made use of his inability to create in order to create. The audience were kept waiting outside the Gallery. The door was never opened until the end of the exhibition.( quote)
